Couple possibilities: Is the correct thermostat installed? Is thermostat installed correctly?

+1 on the infrared thermometer. Cheap and good to have around for trobleshooting temp problems.
I bought one for my 2750 and was able to record a complete heat profile for my engine from exhaust system to oil pan and everything in between.
