I am hoping I will not need oil an cooler after new short block. Keep hope alive.

Meaning you just had a new short block installed and the oil temps are high?

That makes me wonder if you have a poor cooling... like maybe they resused the old head gasket when the engine was assembled.

Does the oil look milky? Any evidence of low coolant?
