Low coolant temperature

Low coolant temperature
Coolant temperature is driving me crazy, reading between 145-155 on ultra gauge after replacing head gasket and full coolant drain, had replaced original thermostat with a factory 180, tried switching it back and it did go up about 5 degrees, bled it multiple times per procedure and tried a new 3rd thermostat, I’m convinced that the temperature is correct as I have put a thermal temp gauge on the block and radiator hoses and it is reading 150, I have checked belt routing and coolant hose routing and am at a loss. Does anyone have any ideas ?

Why are messing with the POS factory thermostat? Use an inline and you can swap thermostat elements with no coolant loss. And yes, you have a faulty thermstat. I have three new factory style thermostats I am willing to give away if someone wants to pay the shipping cost for them, I will never used them.
