ZZ,
I don't really see any problem. One generally sees better water circulation and oil drainback after cleaning up the head and replacing its gasket, and this can affect the temp and pressure readings. I would replace the oil pressure and water temp senders before drawing any firm conclusions.
Your comments about the temp changes show me that your system appears to be working pretty normally. If you are looking for best performance, remember that these engines will be most efficient and make the most power when the water temp is between 180 and 195 degrees. As you edge into this temperature range, though, you'll want to ensure your radiator is up to the task. If you had to replace your head gasket, there is a very good chance that the radiator is in need of a rebuild, as well.
Good luck!
