Reply to "Re Thermostat Brass restrictor plate"

...The openings were measured at 'Rolling' Boiling Water temperature 212F Plus. FULLY OPEN.
The Stats did START to open at their Respective Ratings, with-in 5-7 Degrees Plus.
In the Engine, with a closed system, the water will Not boil, But the Coolant temps may reach as high as 230F-240F?? There is No way for Me to Test and Measure the Openings at these Temps. I imagine the Stats 'Could' open father at the Higher Temperature!

Perhaps Robert Shaw can answer that question!
