And you could probably rule out any rpm or air movement issue if it does the "overheat then cool down" behavior while just sitting in a driveway idling.

Have you noticed if the heater works when the engine gets hot on start up?

I see what you mean ... strange problem ... sounds like something crazy like the water flowing the wrong direction
Yes heater is working I installed an electronic control valve as the 72 has none and it uses a blend door for a/c I am trying to see why ft of eng takes longer to get hot .
