Are you losing any coolant? What kind of radiator/fan setup do you have?

You might just have air bubbles which can cause your temp gauge to spike.

Yes, put OEM fan back on make sure new fans have the same or more fan speed if you want to go electric. I would stay oem tho. For the air bubbles try to bleed it for awhile, make sure heat is on high when you do this.
