is it true that a freshly rebuilt engine (ka24e) will run hotter than normal untill broken in?

if the coolant is over filled initially, it will overflow until it reaches the correct level. the system gets hot, coolant expands, pushes out what won't fit, and that may cause it to slightly overflow. was the car over heating? it sounds a bit fishy. my rebuild ka24de wasn't running REALLY hot after the first startup and certainly wasn't boiling over.
