Running without a thermostat ok?

Yes, my apologies to the OP. Sorry I helped get this off track. My intent was only to reiterate how important it is to have the cooling system complete to the Nth degree. This is especially important when high performance modifications have been made.

Uhhhh... Yeah !! Knowledge is Everything !! BTW , I may be coming down to Ga in a while. Maybe we can get together for a Beer?
