The sleeved themostat that Moss is not the one that I would  
recommend. It is a old antique style bellows style thermostat that  
went out in the 50s. The problem with them is that the are not  
designed to fail in the open mode as well as if the pressure in the  
cooling system get to high it will collapse the bellows and close the  
thermostat causing a overheating problem.

We have a wax capsule style thermostat the has the correct sleeve to  
close off the bypass in stock.
