Okay I think I will get a 180 even if it doesnt help anything but my peice of mind. I get stuck in tons of traffic and its like 110 here atm. I have a 96 4.8 ls1 in a short bed truck and it loved having heating problems til I drop in my 160 because traffic. We dont get much winter so Im not to worried about how fast it gets to temp. Thanks alot guys I got my flexplate fixed scanners on its way along with a new coupler for the sc. Thanks again guys and gals!!
