I just got done changing thermostat and water pump radiator looks decent as far as the naked eye goes and when i flushed radiator with garden hose using hot water all the fins felt warm , but now when car gets hot top of radiator is hot and bottom is cold seems to be a flow issue ....heater blows hot in front and rear . any help or suggestions would be appreciated .

Change your radiator. You don’t need to buy OEM. the Chinese ones works fine. 


@yaser
i think thats gonna be my next option , today i'm gonna try flushing and reverse flushing of engine and seeing if i can locate a radiator

So I got all that replaced and while I'm driving easy I see the temps go up to about 220 so I'm not happy still .....is 220 normal for this engine? I can't find an operating temp for this car anywhere. Heater blows hot pass and driver sides ....rear heating works good too so aux water pump is operating . Any help is appreciated
