15-20 minute install... although I watched Pappy do mine (I was battling a really bad eye infection when my Jet T-Stat, got delivered and Pappy couldn't stand my griping about having to wait a few days to put it in). You'll spill a little rad. fluid, but that's it...

Well because it is probably the least expensive Mod you can do, I researched this one a lot.

The answer to your question is both.

Hey Pappy,
You know anything about doing the T-stat on a 4.7? Any help much appreciated. Also you said you used a Jet T-Stat....is that the way to go?
