This might help. I had a similar problem with a 94 Dodge Van with the 3.0 V6. Not much for heat and poor coolant flow. I did EVERYTHING I knew of even flushed the engine and heater core, lines, new thermostat again. Then, I finally found the problem. On many Dodge built engines and Mitsubishi engines, like mine, the thermostat is round, but offset where it sits in the thermostat housing. The little air bleed valve on the thermostat MUST face the FRONT OF THE ENGINE. Not the front of the car which I had it. There is an baffle (casting)under the thermostat which the thermostat must be lined up with correctly or it will restrict coolant flow undeer the thermostat. The way I installed it correctly the last time it looked like the thermostat housing would crush the top of the thermostat when I tightened it down, but it didn"t and I got all kinds of heat now. I put it on wrong the first time because it "looked" like the right way it should fit in there. My mistake. Hopefully it is your mistake too. Leon in Mn.
