I'll assume this is an s13, you do have the heater on high and the air vent(located next to the cts/temp gauge sensor), if you havent done this your not letting ALL the air out and thats causing your problems. Next could be a bad water pump or faulty thermostat.

did you replace the water pump when ya replaced the cylinder head? if ya didn't, then yes it needs a new pump.
