John,
If you do not use a thermostat with sleeve then you should install the
blanking sleeve in addition to a conventional thermostat. If I recall
correctly, Norman Nock stated in his Tech Talks booklet that with out a sleeve
you will loose up to 20% of the system cooling capacity.

The archives mentioned the change from 7# to 10# and I have both in
1" long neck. I purchased a 10# long neck caps from a tractor
supplier and looks like any other cap. I was trying to decide if I
should purchase the Moss thermostat with the sleeve and bellows and
go back to a 10# cap but decided not too.
