Ok, what's the correct Napa part number? I went to two local Napa stores and asked for both 530800 and 530080 combinations that I've seen in older posts. Both didn't show up in their system. I've just tried using those numbers in the online store and it couldn't find it either. Leads me to believe that's the wrong #.

Looking for it put a dent in my schedule today. So I had planned on: thermostat, mark 180 temp on stock gauge, install efan and controller, and install water temp gauge. But I missed out on the thermostat.

Better yet. post a link to napa's online store with correct part # searched.

 

That's cuz the part number you have there isn't the right one....

n/m... I'm retarded...

 

Gah!!!! I had a napa link there too!!!

Mozilla must have crashed....

Here it is, though,

Napa Stat

 

0, 180 stat is for the 5.2-5.9 motors. but it is the same sige for the 4.7. the books dont cross refence with the 4.7. here is a pic of them left is the factory one with the notch and the right is the one you need to cut the notch out of. just remove the factory gasket from the factory stat and place it over the new one. these stats are cheap 5.00. compared to others that go for 40.00

thanks, I wrote it down. I'll try again this time.

 

Picked it up today but I missed out on installing it...ran into some issues getting my fan controller to work. In the end found out it was my fault. Left an unused wire unprotected and kept shorting it out...oops. I'll have to do this next weekend or so.

 

What is on the original at 3 O'clock than is not on the replacement?

 

Kind of looks like a rivet to me
