Before you do anything, check to flow, make sure you have good flow through the radiator and that the thermostat is opening fully. It would be a good idea to have the block checked again. Make sure the water passages are clear and the bottom of the water jacks arewn't loaded with dirt and rust and that that water jacks aren't cracked.( have the block magnafluxed).
Hope this helps.
