EEk, I would not lap the core. It is too easy to screw them up by not lapping perfectly flat, etc. I think your probe is jacked.

P.S some might say my temp probe under the socket is displaying wrong info. Well i dont think so, i have checeked the temps using 4 other thermal probes and get the same results.
Check it. Maybe just a little lapping? Enough to remove any residue that isn't removed when cleaning it. I assume you're cleaning it? I've lapped the core on a tbird 900 before and it yeilded 1c better temps, but that was taken with the in socket probe. I used a piece of copper. I also put tape all around the top of the proc to be sure not to get any dirt/metal shavings etc.. on the bridges.
