If it were a thermostat problem, the water would be coming out cold because none would be circulating through the engine block and picking up heat. If the water is coming out hot, it is a insufficient flow problem. Check your water pump(s).

I did notice two things running the motor at around 2K rpm, one, its loud as H&LL!!!!! (glad the little old lady next door is deaf), the other was that the stream was not steady. *I bet it needs an impeller.
