Thermostats

[Bryan]

All,

As some of you are awear I have been running my new engine up from time to time. One thing that is puzzling me is that there are no thermostats in it. When I speak to diffrent people the answers I get back range from there not needed to an absolute must our she will just over heat.

So I thought I should put the word out and see how you all manage in the carriers. I under stand the thermostates live in the top hose's. Can anyone shed some light on what they look like or can anyone supply me with a pair. What are the implications in not running stats. My general concern is that with nothing restricting the flow in the coolent system. the rad efficiency may not be up to cooling the water quick enough. causing it all to get a bit to hot

Any ideas.

Thanks

Bryan
