I would definitely get rid of the that grill. Proper ducting will also make a difference if you don't have any.

FWIW I have a Full Blown Radiator, Factory Fans, and cools my 6.8ltr LS just fine.

You could try a vacuum pump on the radiator to help move the trapped bubble out of the engine. We use this on our LS engines to help speed up the coolant fill proses.

This makes no sense.

OP, are you boiling off any coolant? Do you have a decent expansion tank?

I'm liking your air bubble theory. Can you install a burp valve at some high point?

Could have cavitation in the pump at higher rpm, or to high of flow for proper heat exchange with the smaller radiator. You could try slowing down the water pump speed with a different size pully.
