Another item that can blow radiators is if the thermostat wasn't installed correctly in the housing. Easy to check, but have the catch pan ready if you pull the thermostat (don't ask me how I know that). Make sure it's seated correctly. Hold it in flush with the housing, use the bracket (Marc's trick) or a putty knife while you tighten the lower housing bolt.
