The trick is to run a 205 thermostat for the block, and a 120 thermostat for the cylinder heads.

Good luck with that...it's possible (I suppose) but extremely inconvenient.

My engine will see 190 to 210 degree oil temps and 160 degree or under coolant temps if I let the engine cool down enough at the dragstrip when I make a pass.
