Re:NO pressure in radiator??!!
was the hose hot? could be tstat not opening. try just removing it completely or just get a new one, they are cheap. Could be your water pump. (hope not since its a new motor).
Try the tstat first since its obviously the cheapest/easiest.

drive for a good hour or so, see where your temp gauge stands if you are overheating and you still have no pressure in your radiator then its most likly your water pump, it could also be that your motor didnt get too warm, perfect coolant/water mixture is always a plus

Re:NO pressure in radiator??!!
was your radiator low on antifreeze, the only way there will be no pressure present in the system is if you have a leak external or internal. So if your antifreeze is low, fill it and see were its leaking.
