the snub needs to be adjusted... that is easy... as for the overheating..
did you use the right coolant? (shouldn't overheat even if you didn't)
are you leaking coolant?
are you full of coolant? you need to add coolant, run the car a little, add more coolant, etc.

He might have some air in there...
I went through the same thing on my 2.8 when I had it all out the last time.
Dude, try bleeding the coolant from the hose going through the firewall.

The Bentley's picture in the link Bryans12v posted is facing the firewall and just below and to the
left of the coolant expansion tank. One thing I failed to properly note in that other thread .. you'll want to loosen the coolant expansion tank cap when you raise it up the ~4 inches. Otherwise the coolant won't flow into the system to displace the trapped air.
