Well, it is hard to argue with someone's PERSONAL experience, but from a purely technical (thermodynamics, heat transfer, academic) standpoint, it does not compute. AND, from my own personal experience for 50 years/many engines, they all have ran cooler without a thermostat. AND, it should be noted that the small block Chevy was introduced at 265 cubic inch with a 48 GPM water pump, increasing to 85 GPM by the time it reached 350 cubic inch Corvette HP trim. GMC had a 305 V6 that pumped 135GPM in 1960 and the little N Fords pump 16GPM. So you have a hard row to hoe to convince me that greater flow can make an engine run hotter.
