Re: Removing thermostats.
Personally I wouldn't remove the thermostat, Without it the engine warms unevenly. As for running cooler or hotter that's pretty much a 50/50 split I've seen engines go in either direction without one. Also debris can move freer between engine and radiator.

I run a 160 stat in the Y block, SS washers with a 5/8 hole in the flathead. They both run right where I want them.
