Default Overheating and PCV valve?

1. My car is overheating just sitting at idle... Is the best possibility is that it is the thermostat? I am not sure what degree thermostat I got but could that be the cause of it overheating?
2.What is the purpose of the PCV valve? Is it a necessity to have it connected? I have a Holley 750DP and I have the break booster hooked up to the back vacuum line, and don't see an additional hookup anywhere.
Thanks
Karl
