For all of you that DON'T have the 180 t-stat...It is a good recommendation for BOTH series engines..whether you are stock or modded...For the modded people, you can also drill weep holes into it also...to allow some bypass of the t-stat...

Okay, I got a question...what'* the deal with the 180* thermostat everyone always talks about? do I need one of those? or if my car is ten years old and hasn't had one, is it already too far gone?
My princess...The 180 stat is usually the first modification that you'll want to do...Doesn't add any punch, but will allow your block to handle the future punishment of HP mod'*

Recommended on all, but should be a MUST on Series II N/A engines.
