I knew I had seen pics before of the OC t-stat...I had saved them on my computer from another thread either on this forum or on the other one. If you don't mind me posting them in your thread then here they are, otherwise I can remove them...save you some work anyway

For those asking, I would think you wouldn't want to completely delete the T-stat. For one thing it allows quicker oil warm-up, which is useful since the oil is working best when warm...and it could help build up oil pressure quicker when cold as well, since allowing oil through the oil cooler right away would mean a pressure drop for the system potentially.
