Lightbulb First of all.......

Do you have an oil cooler? Add one with an oil temperature thermostat, and that should help temps across the board. This will help you drive the car more safely while you work this bug out, and you also will have increased oil supply.

Second, did the gas gauges work correctly/accurately, before? If they were accurate before the electrical changes, it sounds like a wiring problem....could it be that your fan wiring gets overloaded, and shuts down when you are on the road? Or can you hear the fan operating?
