Hmmm, don't think I'd want all that cold water rushing into my hot block as the stat opened, I've heard one crack before.

  While I'm on the subject, it's possible to flush the cooling system with the 
  cheap Prestone adapter without removing the thermostat.  You hook up the 
  garden hose and set it to trickle and then run the engine to operating temp. 
  You'll know when the thermostat opens because the flow suddenly gets bigger 
  and dirtier.
