1963 Chev Impala Overheating - Engine

Question: My car has a 327 engine. It currently has 158, 000 miles. It overheats only in temperatures above 80 degrees after driving about 20 miles non-stop. It has a new radiator and is not leaking. When it gets hot, it kicks the water out of the overflow. It has a fairly new water pump and water seems to be circulating, but is circulating very slowing. There seems to be a lot of movement in the engine pulley system when putting the car in gear and is making a rattling noise. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Technican: Hi; I would take the belts off and see where the play is coming from. It sounds like something is loose and not keeping proper tension on the belts. This is causing your water pump pulley to not spin fast enough and circulate the water to maintain the engine cool. .

Technican: Hi; I hope you got the info. Server seems to have hung up. Thanks.
