I wanted to give some feedback on the thermostat/ heating issue.  I pulled 
the sleaved thermostat and tested it in a pot of water.  While it did start 
opening at 160, it was not fully open till about 185 and the opening is 
limited.
I put in a modern Stant themostat and the car runs cooler.  I think the 
sleaved model was restricting flow.
