If it can idle for even a few minutes without boiling over, I doubt it's the gaskets in backwards. They have a big opening in one end, if that opening is at the front all the water flows through the front of the engine and the back cylinders overheat very quickly.
You said it was rebuilt 8 years ago. Did it sit for years without any coolant in it? The metal blockoffs might have corroded through, allowing a little water to circulate through the front holes and causing a slower heating condition.
That's going to be nice, like the color. .
