How high are you filling the radiator? How low does it go after a drive?
These beasts will spit out coolant till they reach their "happy" level. That is usually to where you can just see a little coolant over the rad tubes. At that level, it will cool just fine (so long as the coolant is above the water pump). If the overflow tube has been installed incorrectly, it might influence where it settles.
