To ME it sounds like the new thermostat is not opening and letting the water circulate, the water is then trapped in the engine and then overheats. you might want to take it back to the mechanic that did all the work. i'm not saying it was his fault, what i'm saying the thermostat may have been bad when he installed it.

Coolant boiling out of the overflow reservoir is not what's causing your engine to overheat. I'd suspect improper installation of the new head gaskets or thermostat.

blockage in the head gasket area

How much was taken off the head during the milling? Did you get an oversized head gasket to compensate for the change in compression ratio? Did you install the new head gasket correctly? (They have an up and down side to them)
