MA70 Temp Problem

[Hibba]

Ok here's the G.O

Oil is clean and new.
Coolant is clean and new.
Cooling system has been bled a few times so theres no air.
Head was done 3weeks ago(1.2mm MHG, ARP Bolts 80ft/lb), Engine was out last week to do the seals.
Compression is Spot on.
No exhaust gasses in the cooling system.
Timing is spot on to.
Clutch fan is working.


Problem:
After driving for a while babying it or not, the temp creaps up to around 100*C on my Mech Water temp gauge. After a little more time it will creap all the way to ~125*C. Coast a little and it will come down to around 105*C and will sit there.

The only thing's i can think atm, are if the radiator core is block, or there is another bloackage somewhere else.

Can anyone shead some idea's on this?

Yeah this happened to me as well just after my rebuild.
After you take your car for a spin, have a feel of the radiator and make sure its warm everywhere and no cold spots. Hope its this, easy fix.
