    yer found out what it is, it was a cracked ic pipe but is still idling at bout 1400rpm but the temp dosent want to go above 55 degrees. I do have a big alloy radiator maybe this could be the issue?

    The low temp could cause the cold start idle valve (cant remember if you still have it) to remain open and hence the higher idle.

    to test if this is whats not letting the temperature go higher,
    you could get a sheet of metal,
    zip tie it to the front half of the radiator, covering some of the cooling slit thingies.
    then take it for a drive.
    if the temperature stays the same. it aint the radiator.
