Humm, just looked back thro your thread n the galleries on the 8v block n 16v head look close to identical so my question above does seem pretty stupid. If you used silicone gasket anywhere tho I guess it's still possible some excess has come adrift n blocked a gallery. Could you use a laser thermometer to find hot spots on the head?

First tho, is the gauge definitely not at fault?

Btw, I'll freely admit to throwing ideas out with little real experience. I've never rebuilt an engine!! Am just hoping to get a discussion going that may genuinely help you out.

No, any ideas appreciated at this stage. 

I've ordered 4 Ktype temp probes/gauges and will fit them around the system and then monitor to try and pin point the issue. Yeah, galleries are a match. Regarding silicone... It would be odd for it to happen on two different heads/rebuilds. Plus I've done about half a dozen flushes. 
Gauge and sensor have tested out fine.


Wheels didn't rub before... But only myself to blame as I built the beam.
