Some of you may know I've been working on my head for like 3 weeks. Haha

Well it's actually in a rented-out stall that I'm paying for ($5 a day), and they're only open 5 days a week. So I don't actually have the liberty to work on it consistently till I'm done, but I'm almost there.
Anywayz, I just realized, now that I'm starting to slap everything back together, my car didn't have a thermostat. I know that a thermostat is not absolutely essential to have a car that runs well. Especially in a pretty warm climate such as San Diego. Should I install one anyway? I'm thinking she'll be just fine.
