I got the civic radiator installed and fired up but there is no water flow. Engine gets up to 220 but radiator is cold, is there something you have to do to get it to prime or something? Thanks

Did you get all the air out of the system? Depending on where your radiator is you might need a seperate tank mounted higher then the motor.
Also check your thermostat.....you can put it in some boiling water to see if its opening. Or even as a test take it out and see if water flows. If this is your first time stating it up maybe you got the hoses backwards. Maybe a bad waterpump. Do some checks and give us some more info or some pics of your setup and let us know if the problem just popped up or you are tring to get a new setup running.
