With no t stat it won't ever warm up in cool weather.
Is there anyone out there with ONLY the pump replaced with a HD unit, and
everything else left as was?

I recently fitted the uprated water pump from British Parts Northwest. Some
listers suggested it has better performance than the one that Moss offers,
but I can't really confirm nor contradict that.
Certainly, but car's cooling is much better now, in fact the thing won't
warm up! I can't say it's all the water pump's fault, though, because I also
fitted a thicker radiator core with no starting handle hole, as well as the
Moss TR6 fan conversion kit. I think the reason it won't warm up is that
I've only driven the car, with the mods done, in cooler autumn temperatures
and also my car hasn't had a thermostat since long before I owned it, which
I will now correct.
Regardless, to reiterate I can say the British Parts Northwest uprated pump
is highly recommended.
