I hate Napa's website, BTW. Glad you learned to research before you go to the store and got it fixed!
I don't know man, sometimes I swear I could research a problem for a month and still miss something

A wise man once said, "I never lose, either I win or I learn something". Same applies here... I'm betting you learned something (probably more than you wanted!)

Ya know, sometimes, sometimes, I like it better when something goes wrong just so that I can learn from it. I can be a glutton for punishment

Just one final update. Today my buddy and I removed the wrong thermostat and ran back to Napa. We bought the correct thermostat, plenty of coolant, and after a trip to the store plenty of distilled water. We flush the cooling system until nothing but clean water came out with no gunk in it. We refilled the entire system with the appropriate coolant and took it for a drive. She seems to run and cool like a new truck. I guess replacing the thermostat was it after all. I will continue to monitor in the coming weeks but I don't expect to lose in a coolant.

Was the t-stat bad, or did draining and refilling the system get the air out of it?? Sorry man, gauge pegging, but no heat out of the heater..... I still don't think it was a bad t-stat. I think changing it fixed it because it was air locked. You even said yourself that you don't know if you got the air bled before just changing it.

One way or another it got fixed. I just hate it when you don't know the root cause. Especially on a forum, where others can read later.

Couldn't agree more
so put the stat on the stove and boil it in water, if it opens just before the water starts to boil, it is working correctly ( or use a thermometer in the water)

I agree with Jonathan, but will add in the hundreds of water pumps I've done on these engines, I've never had an air lock. I don't use an Airlift to fill them either, I just pour it in and top it off once its running. They are about the only thing I don't use it on.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
