I think I'll just borrow Westpak's idea and create a joint for access to bring fluid to the inlet in front of the thermostat. I wouldn't want to deprive any coolant to the thermostat side. I will probably cut off the nipple of the bypass and weld it closed on the passenger side leading down to the oil cooler.

stock oil cooler/warmer
sandwich with 2 ports for gauges (oil temp and oil press)
thermostatic sandwich for oil cooler
No problems whatsoever. It is a bit tight trying to get the oil filter off, but not too bad. I can still fit an oil filter wrench on it.
