Chevrolet/Engine Overheating

Question
I have a 2000 Chevy Tracker. It has been overheating. We have replaced the water pump, clutch for the clutch fan, several thermostats and a new radiator. The vehicle continues to overheat. What else could it be and how can we fix this problem
Terry;
HI - I would have a presshure test taken to see if there is a leak . Is there anything in front of the radiator to block the air? Is the oil clean or is there any white on the stick,if so you might have a cracked head or gasket.
Have you replaced the rad. cap.and is the tension tight enough to turn the fan w/o slipping.
