Seems there was enough of a issue to cast the crossover. More water moving is better.
Cool sounds like they've found a way to make more money.
I still don't see how blocking that little by-pass hole does anything. The only thing i see is when the thermostat is closed you have zero flow but that's why it's been posted all you need to do is drill a couple holes in the t-stat and problem solved.
Fwiw there have never been any signs of issues with heat with my HP engine, either dyno, strip or street and don't run water from back of head to the crossover. That's just my experience.
