is this normal?

hey guys , like i have posted b4 i got my car back last week after getting it repaired for a what turned out to be a bad tranny. anyway in the process my engine was removed because it was thought that my engine had seized, while it was out i had them put on some pacesetters lt's and ory and a 3500 stall converter . now my question is should any of that make my car slightly hotter? im talking just a bit over the mid line it always goes back down . it didnt do this b4 the work was done. sorry 4 all the reading thanks in advance 4 your input

No, those mods should not make it run hotter...if it is reaching abnormal temperatures, they might not have bled the cooling system correctly, or something along those lines.

that could be caused by not being bled correctly.
