Why build up pointless pressure when you can flow it and use it?

That'* insane....I can now, easily and convincingly, testify that you, sir, are totally nuts.

As far as the difference between the two stats.........I dunno, although the plunger on the 160* looks like a different diameter, but I am old an feeble and prolly seeing things.

Bill, do not break MY car, just so long as she goes fast, do whatever needs to be done before I get there. Oh and I am the FIRST one (besides you) who gets to drive her!!!!!!

I think its time for a 1.9" Bill

Pmom, Matt and Joel are getting here a day before you.
And John and Shadd drove both the cars a couple months back I think.

Difference between the thermostats is indeed the diameter of the opening when it reaches temperature. The INTENSE thermostat should flow just shy of 10% more than the Stant I had in there. So I drilled some carefully calculated bypass holes to make up the rest, and should have made up the flowrate and cooling efficiency I lost when I so greedily pursued the 6-8 horsepower the underdrive water pump pulley gave me.

I am now in the NON-enviable position of having seasonal thermostats. One of them for 4 months of the year, the other for the rest.

Joel is fairly excited to see it as well, this is the most contrersial item forsale that bolts onto any of our S1 cars.
Bill..look in your ride damnit lol

Okay, what is this nonsense about MY boys driving MY car before me.....No, no, no this will not do...........I am joking, they can drive her first and work all the bugs out before I get there

that fits on there ???

I might have to take that for a test drive or something. thank god you have tranny insurance.

ok boss, they look 10x better than you just telling me. I have to get a red pulley now!!!!!! And good GOD, the T-Stat is INSANE!
