At over 4 miles I would expect it to be opening the stat... the stat might be partially open and moving fluid into the radiator ... just a guess.... try driving farther

my sender is in the pump hsg. i don't think having it in the block is any different. cover ur rad with a towel to increase the temp, then remove it & see if the temp stablizes. i think ur system is fine. stay safe, seeya.
Will make a difference if the sender is on the rad
sid or block side of the stat... I dont know where
yours is located

I use the bypass hose hole in the intake and eliminate the bypass and thermostat on my SB. You can also get an adapter for the small Mopar temp sender hole or you can open it up and rethread it to a larger size.

Not entering the motor 
Yes, thats where it should be. Depending on where you measure it, block water temps can very as much as 80 degrees.
