I use common ethylene glycol and water, 50/50, on my original '64, and would continue to do so after a rebuild. It's been around a long time and available everywhere. My $.02. I would think water wetter is up to you. I would not expect it to cause problems.
Also, it's pretty common for engine temps to be a little higher immediately after a rebuild because of tighter parts. Once you have 500-1000 miles they should drop back to normal. Maybe this is not the case if you are using modern, thin rings.
