colder thermostat 160, 170?

Featured Replies

of course it wont show up at napa if they look up soobs. so does anyone know of the coldest thermostat that will fit in a soob, what make/year of another car to order for, or part number

its for my turbo

I'm pretty sure it's 54mm's. I've got a 160 in my turbo right now, and I'm pretty sure it's suppose to be for a SBC (small block chevy, 305-350-400). Jes what ever you get, make sure it's a 54mm one.

And, whot turbo? I musta missed the thread with you getting a new rig? Comeon girlfriend, DETAILS!!!!

Yeah, That EA performance page recommends 170 for the lowest because of condensation in the oil. I don't know where he was from because I ran 160 in my BRAT with no problems. Works good. (Especially if your sube runs hot) Yes, It is 54 MM but REMEMBER: It is NOT ROUND.

girlfriend? what you saying? vixen would be more appropriate!

 

anyway.............................its an 87 gl-10 turbo TrashWagon6. thats ea82t in soob speak i gots a single row radiator, and clutch fan for now. there was no radiator in the car when i got it.

 

would 160 be too cold for winter? i could run it anyway, as long as i dont have problems. i like to gets on it, and i know a soob will get hot driving in snow.

 

condensation in oil wont bother me, it will probably evaporate, at least its not coolant!
