I was thinking about that. Is there any other purpose for that valve?
I'd like to take it for a quick spin once I get some stuff around the house done...

it's just to stop coolant flow to the heater core when you turn the heat off in the dash.
you can bypass it as stated above and make a quick and cheap "adaptor from various brass parts if you need a quick fix to retain heat, but you'll always have heat coming from the heater core. not a bad thing in the winter, and it gives you time to purchase the right part in the meantime.
I may have a used valve at the shop you can have. i'll check monday and drop you a PM if i find one.
