[DeTomaso] Brass bypass flow restrictor-need one.

[Tony DiGiovanna]

If you're using a water pump that does not have the bypass passage (like
Weiand's I think,) then you don't need the restrictor plate or a Cleve
thermostat.
Another option is to defeat the bypass passage in one of several other ways
(use your conservative imagination,) then stick with the std Windsor
thermostat as well.
You should be able to execute any of the options while in the car.

I've been helping a friend freshen up his 72. 
We've found more than a few creative modifications installed by well meaning
priors along the way.
Most recently we found a 192 degree windsor t-stat and no brass restrictor
plate seated in the block beneath.
So I need a restrictor and I could use a source for a cleveland 180 degree
t-stat too.
I should be able to get the new brass restrictor seated in the block with
the engine in the car, no?
Thanks,
Larry
