we discussed this a bit on another post, but something that strikes me as weird / dangerous about this motor's design is that the thermostat is on the INTAKE side of the engine.
this means that when it opens, cool water from the radiators will flow past & it will start to close again. this is contrary to ALMSOST every other motor i've seen. so, our 190deg thermostat is actually trying to maintain the cool radiator water at 190, NOT the hot side. this strikes me as a) pretty hot and b) pretty dangerous.
that having been said, this realization has made me a firm believer that the low temp thermo is the correct way to go.
