Is the belt on correctly and do you have enough coolant.

Sounds like air is still trapped. You'll need to burp it. I suggest milking the upper radiator hose and possibly raising the rear of the car so the radiator is lower than the heater core while it's running. It can take a bit. Sometimes just leaving the cap off (over night while it's cool) will help...
Also while running, make sure the heater is on... -Don

You haven't told us how you refilled the system. After you fill the radiator, you need to run the engine with the cap off and keep adding coolant as the air comes out of the system. You shouldn't have to tilt the car.

These motors do not bleed as easily as earlier ones. Thermostats open from hot fluid not hot air so unless there is a substantial amount of liquid in the block they tend to overheat easily. What I do is fill the block as much as possible through the thermostat hole before installing the thermostat. You still need to run and fill the system but it is much quicker.
