Put those injectors on a test stand and check the spray pattern & popping pressure. Don't take them to the same shop or tell the shop where they came from. Sounds like they were incorrectly rebuilt or they were just cores that were never rebuilt. New head bolts are required as used fasteners will not give a reliable re-torque. Particularly if you suspected seepage prior. I have to suspect the decision to change a head gasket when the engine was running fine and was only running warm..................

An engine at part load putting around, doing loader work etc is better off running 210-220F.
