Hey....same here. Nice job on the writeup!

I have a tip, though.....I did my thrmostat a few months back and found that
I could avoid having to remove the alternator and the mount. By using a
really long screwdriver, I was able to get to the return hose clamp by
sneaking in through the opening in the bracket on thge side......Then, I
could remove the bolts for the thrmostat housing, pull it up off the engine
and then remove the thermostat that way. Saves a lot of extra work.
