    If all these engines overheat, wouldn't you want to look for a common denominator. Radiator, pumps, coolers, something?

    I know this sounds silly but did you change temp gauge and sending unit. I like to back it up with a mechanical gauge. Use a temp gun to check radiator and hydraulic oil cooler.
