Obsessing about thermostats and bypass

jmardyMember

Talking to an expert on the 351 Cleveland who asked if I had the right thermostat in my engine. (me: "huh?").
So I did some research. My engine is using a PRW water pump:

And has a Balkamp BK 8251007 thermostat.

My question is: Is that the right thermostat? And should I be running a brass bypass?
