Yeah, but it's a 160 degree thermostat. That will actually make it run hotter because the coolant doesn't have long enought to stay in the rad and transfer heat. It will slowly build up heat the longer it runs.

Main problem I can see is 20* base timing. Around 14 should be max depending on your particular engine. Above that and you're begging for problems
