What temp thermostat is in the car now? Make sure that there is one in there at all. I have seen people remove the thermo to fix overheating problems.

I have a '76 3.0si that I bought last fall and it runs like a bear in the winter. Starts every time and will go through anything with a set of Blizzak's on all around.
My question is.....How can I get more heat to the interior of this car???
It runs great all summer with no episodes of overheating and it ran fine all last winter. I just need more cabin heat and defrost.
What degree thermostat should I be running for winter????
can I make any mod's to improve heating. From what i have read on these cars, the trick is keeping them cool. That problem I don't have.
Anyone have any thoughts??? Winter fast approaching....
TIA,

Tom M in PA
