y is my car overheating

i have a 93 z28 camaro that is overheating. all the hoses and waterpump is brand new. i have the right mixture nd water amount needed. thermostat is brand new as well(160 deg.) i bleed the valve so no air is in the system and my car still over heats. after i drive it and and shut it off i hear air bubbles movin around in the radiator. but wen the car is running i look underneath to see if any fluids are leaking and i see nothing. i just bought a new radiator cap last night and still having the same problems.

Are your fans even coming on?

Check the condition of your oil or coolant, check for cross contamination. If any, you need new head gaskets.
