alright so i install my be cool and the car runs hotter than it ever did before. here is my theory. im running undrive pullys with a stock water pump and because of the increased size of the rad the water is not moving fast enough? sound good to you?

No. Is it running hotter in town or on the hwy? If on the hwy then check to see if you still have the air deflector underneath the rad. If it is in town then check your fans and maybe our thremostat. Also if you timming is out then it will run hotter. Did you drain the rad? If so you could try to run the engine without the rad cap on (just let the engine idle) to bleed off any air. While doing this you can check to see at what temperture the water starts to flow.
