do you think an electric inline pusher pump would help keep the original pump primed??
having no t stat in it will cause an issue also if you dont run at least a restriction plate to slow the coolant down. with no t stat the coolant will run through the radiator faster than it has time to cool. if you want to run without one gut the insides and leave the t stat housing as a restriction
