Well after looking around I've noticed that several people around here have a 180 Stat. What are the benifits of this?

 

makes it run cooler. and with my chip I need it.

 

if im not mistaken......tricks the computer into advancing timing and adjusting fuel ratio. And oh yeah- engine runs cooler-thats always a good thing!

 

Ok, so it run cooler. I see. Its under the radiator cap correct? How much are they?

 

No, it's not under the radiator cap. Follow your top radiator hose to where it connects to the engine. It is right under the thermostat housing that the hose is attached to.

 

Ah, I see. There I go thinking again. They fairly cheap.

 

mine was $8.00 at napa number 530080 but rember you need to take the gasket off the original and instal it on the aftermarket one. plus there is a notch you need to cut into it. but i beleive jet chips have them for sale complete for $35.00

 

I think summit has them also but they are up in the $40 range. Get the Napa one and cut the notch yourself.

 

actually on the 4.7 the thermostat housing is on the bottom hose. And i dont think it has a gasket. Its an o ring.

 

So its on the bottom hose from the radiator? Or its on the engine where the bottom hose connects to it?
