Have you checked the actual level since adding the cooler and the extra 2qts? You may be over filled by a quart or so and churning the oil up now. Inspect the oil filter for debris from internal damage as this will cause high temps aswell.

If you run a wet sump, you may want to check the installed angle of the engine. It should be at five degrees down to the rear for proper oil drainage. You could have a windage problem. Check it!
