You'll need to get the proper thermostat housing. |

YOu can eliminate the expansion tank without problem.
Because the surge-tank type of intake has a larger hole to fit a larger thermostat, you'll want to be sure you use the thermostat which fits the hole, and also the thermostat housing which fits this larger hole.
These large thermostat-hole housings are common on early FE engines, but start to get less common about half-way through the '60s, as more FEs were equipped to use smaller thermostats.The housing you need is still quite common, and usually a durable cast iron, so you should not have any trouble picking one up cheap.
