Water pump impellers could be worn out. Normally you should spring a leak first but sometimes you don't.
Was the pump replaced when the engine was rebuilt (I would hope so!).

Unlikely but easy to test. Does one of the positions of your tweecer have the stock cal? Switch it to that and try it. If not go to posi 5 which turns the tweecer off completely and try it. Have you hit the thing with a laser temp gauge to make sure your gauge isnt faulty? Pete. |

well going on the apparent flawlessness of the cooling system, its a likelyhood.
