I have the same pump and was told the same thing by the manufacturer.so i didn't put it in.I have a 4 row radiator an 18" electric fan ,The motor has 11 1/2 to 1 compression, aluminum heads and it runs between 180 and 195.If i just cruise i will stay around 180-185 if i beat it alot it's right up 195-200.What i do is park it for 5 minutes with the engine turned off running the water pump which will bring it down 150 or so and then start over.

Hope this helps.

FWIW, typically when you talk with them they will not recommend a restrictor.
We tried it both ways and found with no restrictor it ran cooler.
