[Spridgets] thermostat in the south......

It is the most affordable option BUT as John states it will achieve nothing 
 by way of reducing the running temperature for the reasons he states.  On  
that basis it's simply a waste of time and money - even if you can readily  
afford both.

there.  
The radiator should be fine and the engine only has 800 miles on it, so  I'm
thinking the cooling system should be clear.  I checked the timing  and 
it's ok
also.

It  really doesn't matter what the thermostat opens at. If your
cooling  
system will not keep the motor at 180 it sure won't keep it lower,
once  
either thermostat opens they have the same size openings and will  flow
all the coolant that can flow.
