I went with the even flow cooling mod on mine.

One of those kits comes with plastic T fitings for the rear hose. Throw it away and get brass. I did mine myself with off the shelf parts. Drilling and tapping the intake works better than the fitting on the back of the head because the rear one still leaves a still spot at the top of the cyl that does not circulate. You want to tap right above the water oulet on the drivers rear of the intake and use a T fitting into the heater return hose that goes into the back of the water pump. The kits that feed back into the crossover pipe in front dont work nearly as well. The one that goes into the uper rad hose looks pretty good also.

I have the LDC kit on my car and I think it's well worth it. It replaces a freeze plug on the left side with modded plug from the right side.

this is something i haven't done but my car never sees anything past 4th gear unless it's just normal cruising, no boost in 5th or 6th. but this is a great ease of mind in general
