Re: To thermostat or not to?
the pistons will not expand as designed thereby letting more blowby gasses and not making full potential power.
as for is it "bad" on the motor?......no. will it degrade your oil quicker...yes.
did i care for the couple of 240's i did it on?.....no.
haha

225 in the block isnt overheating. that just means your t stat is working and keeping your motor at that temp....this doesnt mean all the water in the rad is that temp.
