Is it truly overheating or just running a little hot, reading higher than normal at times but not in the red zone? Are you going only by the gauge? No loss of coolant at the hoses clamps or anywhere? This would be pretty obvious.

You can use an IR thermometer to check the temp of the upper radiator hose. I forget what the normal reading is but someone here will know.

The temp comp bypass is a good idea in any event.
