Thermostat? Very possible that while changing the pump, some schmutz (or small pieces of gasket) got into the system and now lodged in the thermostat, preventing it from opening (or closing) all the way. Same is possible, or other build up, in radiator or water jacket. I'd start with thermostat (cheap/easy) and then do a flush if that doesn't work.
