At the risk of hijacking..
Jak: in the UK there is a BIG problem with those surges of cold water straight to heads on the Rover K series engines when used in mid mounted cars (MGF/Elise) as they too have the thermostat on the inlet. When I built my libra I fitted an external BMW thermostat on the outlet and removed the original one and it worked fine. I won't consider removing the thermostat as 90% of engine wear is on warm up, maybe an external mount is a good option for you? I'm thinking about it for the cabrio..
