Yes . You can easily regulate the temps to the 180 to 190 range
with the cardboard.
Cold running wears hard on the engine.

Why is there a hurry to do more work?
If the engine runs hundreds of miles north to Maine and back with no
heating problem, why not leave it? Thermostat being blocked open
isn't a terrible thing, is it? A bit of coolant leak is not as bad as
an oil leak, is it? Run it as is and watch things closely. You drove
it to Maine and back, no problem. It drives around town today, why
not leave things as they are? Is there a hurry to fix? When you have
mayonnaise oil... yeah, then there needs to be a fix sometime soon.
