Just got my new waterpump installed. Car runs better then before. Pulls great and less vibration.

I'm still getting water gushing sounds in my dash though.

The sloshing noise behind your dash is air in your cooling system.. the only way to get rid of it is to raise the fornt end of your car only and run the car at 2500rpms for 5 mins to bleed the system out. the air in the heater core is higher up than the highest point in your cooling system so it has no way to get out by itself, By raising the front end of your car, it makes it the lower point and it will bleed out.
Leave the reservoir cap off while doing it and top up as necessary.
That should fix your sloshing problems.

I would say jack stand height would be good, around a foot or so off the ground.
