WTF is wrong with my temps

Ok so my cars temps use to be right around 135-140 after or during a wot pull from 40-120 now my car has been sitting for about 8 months and my temps are at 175-180 from a 40-120 pull. I checked my ic pump working just fine. Could it be the gas from sitting so long?

I have a h/e

Possibly air in the system would be my first guess.

car ran for about a hour or 2 when I was tuning. Also for the air in the system could be I drained my h.e and added more coolant I have yet to test see if that was it.

here is my log files one from just driving in town. ones from cruising at 60 and ones my wot pull. I still need to tune some on the wot pull I know but if you look at the temps it starts out at 140 and slowly goes up to 174 iat2 going 90 with iat at 84.http://www.youshare.com/Guest/a75767/DisplaySimple

When your doing a coolant flush, you have to keep ur car running, preferably to engine temp,while filling up the coolant to the proper fill level, having it running while filling it up prevents aeration in the system.
