have you checked to see if your cooling fan is working, if the dc motor is not turning the fan it will get hot. idle the engine from cold and see if the fan turns when the temp gets about 1/2 to 3/4 hot. or test the fan by putting a hot wire to one side of the fan other to gnd and see if the fan turns,

Also check to see if you have white smoke coming from the exhaust pipe,if yes you may have a blow head gasket.
