With more timing you will have a slightly cooler running engine. Check the depth of fan in the shroud. There is a spec something like half in and half out.

A 180 will have a variance in it. Its mechanical, not perfect. Flush your cooling system, including taking out the drain plugs in the block. You will be surprised at what comes out.

Do not use tap water with your coolant. Use a recovery tank with 16 lb radiator cap. There are many other tricks also.
