Don't know if this will help you but some people on another thread were talking about getting air bubbles out of the radiator to help their lack of heat or insufficient heat.

when bleeding a RWD KA, jack up the front as high as you can get it, turn heat on full blast, proceed to bleed, squeezing hoses regularily. if that doenst solve it, replace thermostat. also, if you have bubbles in the system the temp will spike

If the car takes awhile to heat up your thermostat could be 'stuck' open. I took mine out and it takes a minute for the car to actually get warm.
