it could be a bad thermostat/fans

lower temp thermostat will help a lot bigger radiator better fans faster spinning fans bigger water pump

Flush the cooling system,(radiator), considering in your rebuild ya had the block boiled out and a new thermostat in case ya didn't change it. Cost for everything:$59
