I realize that this isn't a new topic by any means. I'm not real comfortable bringing up the topic but the below piece of information could be the cause of many overheating issues.
I'm working with a well known vendor who I respect very much. They are handling the problem for me even better than I had hoped for.
I bought a new water pump (manufacturer starts with C) from supplier and the casting was very wrong. I noticed that the small circulation hole on the left side of the pump (BJ7) leading to the top of the head was off center which blocks nearly half of the hole. I can't help wondering how many people missed this issue when they installed on their car. I noticed it just by chance. It bolts up just fine so there's no reason to suspect the alignment issue. If your car is running hot then you might add this to the troubleshooting list.
Just trying to be helpful.
