Why a 180 T-Stat?
Whats up for using a 180 T-Stat? Anything special you have to do to car for installing one? Does it benefit the car or what happens? Thanks

There'* really no performance gains that we've been able to document. If anything running cooler decreases efficiency slightly and this causes a couple of MPG'*.
The reasons for doing it would be if you had added mods that increase temp. Like a smaller pulley, rockers, heads etc.
Like Dan mentioned...turning the fans on earlier is a great thing. Being a 94 your best method for doing that is to contact GMTuners

When I 180T'* mine, I noticed at the most maybe 1 mpg decrease. I don't get the best mileage...mainly causing I'm trying to beat Venoms 11 mpg record with a non huffing motor! w3
