273 overheating after new timing chain set and waterpump

My 273 did the same thing in traffic or waiting for a train even with a factory shroud. I replaced my original radiator with a champion aluminum one with no shroud and 0 over heating issues. A re-core I’m sure would’ve fixed my problem but was twice price.
I've been thinking of getting a new rad anyway and it's easier than doing the water pump again. Thanks
