I don't see a replaced t-stat on your list. With all that work you did (impressive BTW), a t-stat should be a replaced. There's a few threads that mention drilling a few small holes into the t-stat to allow extra coolant past it. I would look there first.

Why no water? H20 has 2x the heat capacity of 100% antifreeze (ethylene glycol).
