Check to see if you have a hose (the lower one) collapsing and restricting coolant flow. Don't know what happens if thermostat is installed backwards.

What makes me suspect the hose is that the heater works when warming up but does not when hot. Hoses get softer when hot so the collapsing might only occur then. Just guessing...
