I noticed that you have the heater hoses blocked off. I remember seeing something that LS engines did not like the heater lines capped off. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong) I think you had to loop them to solve the issue.
It was suggested to run a u-hose to solve. Like this:

I think this was where I read it:

Thanks for the write up!
I've had the ports blocked off since I did the swap several years ago. I've never had an issue with overheating or cooling.
