the thermastat is there for a reason, it holds hot water in the radiator to be cooled then sent to the engine where the water from the engine is then cooled then cycled again, by having hot water contiully going around the engine it will only get hotter or have bad cooling effect.
i suggest you put a 160* stat in there and get you fans programed or timed to come on early, just my $.02

actually, this has been talked about quite a bit on another forum.

either one has been proven to work very well. i liked the box for its looks more so than performance, but i can't complain so far.. the box has worked out very well. honestly, the nicer bonnet hats might make more power due to the direct flow (hasn't been proven though.., just my opinion), but the box probably makes for easier tuning and driveability. this is debatable. the box does make it more difficult to do the little changes to the carb, but pressurizing the whole carb makes for no mods to the carb to take boost (aside from solid floats).
hope that helps. do a search, this has been discussed in more detail.
