98 xjr overheating

Overheated at idle. Replaced water pump and thermostat and figured as long as I'm in there I'd put a smaller sc pulley on it. Now it blows all the coolant out on the highway. It can idle all day long and drive as long as I don't boost it. Passed a chemical analysis of the coolant that checks for exhaust gases so it should not be a head gasket. Any ideas?

I agree with test point. Or, figure out where the coolant is coming from. I bet you cracked one of the connectors up there on the front of the engine. And relax, I seriously doubt this has to do with the boost. Especially if it does not show "hot". You're sure the thermostat is in the right way, right?

Have a look at this:

The crossed lines can :happen: on the expansion tanks, the one where the coolant cap is.
I assume you mean driver's (left side) or is there a Corpus Chriti in the UK? :<)
Good Luck.
