[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 10599016, member: 20202"] Jimmy The Mocal thermostat appears to be the least restrictive. It's shaped like an "H" with the thermostat in the middle. When it closes the oil flows directly thru each leg with minimal restrictions. There are "steps" on the casting that can be smoothed with a dremal and will present very little added restriction to the system. I use one on my airplane as well. Having looked at all the other thermostats I agree. They looked very restrictive and it's likely I may have foregone one since I live in Southern Kalifornia where I don't have to worry about over cooling the oil which is very bad for the engine (180 degrees is ideal). I use an AN-10 only because I have concerns about delays in priming the system at start-up with the use of an AN-12 lines and all the volume in those large lines. Along with my Fram racing oil filter adapter this is a real nice system. Can't show you any shots because it's not mounted on my car yet but I have already worked out the details.
