you might try a compression check on the cylinders. If you've got a blown head gasket it can take a while for the coolant or oil to become visibly contaminated. What you're looking for w/a compression test is one (or, more rarely, two ) cylinders w/much lower pressure(s) than the other(s)-

Did you assemble this engine ? What I mean is, did you start with a 'known' good engine and swap out parts or did you pick up an engine block from one place and pieces and parts from others?

oh,duh- I just re-read your post. Is there a thermostat installed on this engine ? Have you tested the thermo to verify it functions as it should?
That would be one of the first things I'd check.

Good luck!
