I would say no, The ecu thinks the motor is cold, causing it to run cold start-up maps and have a lower ful cut.

Also...I think its fuxors with your Fan relays...fans wont turn on if they dont think the temperature is hot...watch out for that.

Depends on the motor. On 94+ LS motors its near the thermostat. On my 91 LS motor is was near the oil pressure sensor on the other side of the block.
