Rethinking the issue. If the common connection to the engine side of the T-stat is the block through the big rear hole, and the hose connection on the bottom, the circulating water would still be able to get to the radiator (undesirable in large quantities for warmup) if the hose port was restricted. It would also restrict block flow to even out the warming up coolant. What I suggested prevents coolant from getting to the other side of the T-stat in large quantities, where it is cooled too much and never allows the engine temp to be "normal". The best solution (posted above by another contributor) is to use a stainless steel sheet metal blocking restrictor plate between the halves of the housing limiting the flow to the radiator to 3/8.
