    should have ran a compression test before you took the headgasket off.
    but from the looks of it, assuming the gasket came right off w/o any scraping, then I'd say that was what was causing your overheating.

    Did the compression test,: cold start, pist 1:150,pist 2:175, pist 3:175, pist 4:150 psi, hot start: pist 1:150,pist 2:150, pist 3:150, pist 4:150 psi.
    My car works fine on idle and ran fine, no problems, cold start then ride it for about 10 to 15 minutes and it begin to overheat, all the water in the reservior tank
