well i think its still circulating,and the fan kicks on, i was thinking bc when we swapped the motor we found that the head gasket that was on there was bad and so we put a new one on and switched the head as well

we used a y8 auto manifold but are on a standard setup, switched the throttle bodies any idea as to if that would be the issue?
