basically the car overheats at high rpm. practically new engine. only has 3k on it. its nots leaking, all hoses are clamped and theres no water getting inside the oil. new OEM thermo and new radiator. it drives fine when driven normal. but when i gun it, it overheats. could this be the water pump? im pretty sure i bleed the car right so theres no air in the system. any ideas?
