Javier,
      In a warm environment it will not hurt to run
without thermostat.   It may decrease your gas milage.
However it will not improve cooling.   If you have a
problem with overheating it is best to look elseware
and leave the thermostat in an not blame the weather.
  Perhaps your timing is off?   Try running a switch
to the coolant fan relay and run with your fan on or
off to determine if the radiator can cool enough???

Subject: without thermostat?

Hola amigos:

I am in the process of rebuilding my engine after both
heads blew.
I am really concerned about high temps so I was
thinking of running the
engine without the thermostat.

I know it won�t warm up correctly but we are having a
heat phenomenon
in my
country (it�s called "el ni�o") whichwill last all
year, so the outside
temperature won�t be a problem.

Can anyone tell me their opinions on running without
thermostat?

TIA

Javier
