I wouldn't listen to those so-called "experts". If everything was done correctly on the rebuild, throw all the parts you want at it!

If you're worried get a bigger radiator 3 row verses the stock 2 row and go with a higher volume water pump. That what I've done with the stock motor and I never over heat even if the electric fan dies (which it has) as long as I keep moving the temp stay at about 200 degs.
