'94 Cav. overheating.. but no heat.

[sweetashes]

So when going out to BC, our car overheated on the Trans-Canada,
and after getting towed to Revelstoke the mechanics there at first though it was just a hole in the heater hose.

After replacing this, it turns out that because the car was so hot, it warped the head gasket.

So we had to leave it there for 2 weeks while they replaced it.
Picking up the car today we noticed there was no heating at all coming from the car but yet once it got going, the engine temp. started rising again.

We had to stop 6x between Revelstoke and Calgary to give it breaks so it wouldn't over heat.

So now that we have a new head gasket, and new thermostat.
what the hell is wrong with this car?!?!?

water pump, without it water cant circulate through the engine (hence the overheating) and water cant get to the heater core (hence no heater)
