And I've reached this point of the project:

Last week I thought I had the cooling system solved, this weekend, I'm overheating again. I either have another stuck/plugged thermostat, or I have air that is preventing the system from circulating. I used my laser thermometer to get surface temps at different points in the cooling system. The inlet to the block where the thermostat is tells the whole story.

My gut tells me the thermostat is stuck, because if it was open, there would be better convective heat transfer through the area. The profile looks more like conductive heat transfer. I think I'll pull the thermostat next weekend and see if it looks plugged up.
