overheating 200

My brick, '79 244 Gl B21A, overheats these days...
After changing timing belt it started to overheat when it is under heavy load (motorway, hill climbing...). Thought that sth went wrong with the timing belt, but it seems to be OK though... Changed the thermostat with new one, the problem remains.Changed the radiator (the old one seemed to be a little dirty inside, no change...
Could it be the ignition timing, it is the only thing left that I played with when changing the belt. The car otherwise runs fine (normal idle...)...
Any ideas, please reply!!!
