I understand your need to experiment, I do much the same!
Have you thought about using exhaust heat to help the engines coolant get to operating temp faster? A solenoid and some copper pipe tapped into the exhaust could give you a source of heat, which could be used to help the engine warm up quickly, and could also help the gearbox get up to temp faster. It seems a waste to dump it out the exhaust when it could be utilized.
