Lots of options;
A flush "T" in the heater hose to the intake manifold works well. (cap loose or off while you fill the system)
Drilling a 3/32" hole in the flange of the thermostat works well.
Propping the thermostat open with an aspirin will work also. (use Advil if you're allergic to aspirin) ;-)
Temporarily removing the coolant temperature sensor works well.
The idea is to allow air to easily escape past the closed thermostat.
