    I dont want to be a hard ass here, but your not listening, you gotta read man, we told you were to read and learn to answer your questions.

    A 180 thermostat just makes the car run cooler and that is it. But with how are cars like to run and how warm they get anyway with heatsoak and what not, the stock thermostat works just fine.

    When you mod the stock spark plugs are not what you want to be running. You want to run a smidge cooler plug like autolites.

    606 = Stock ( what you should run)
    605 = A little cooler ( you could run these if you want)
    104 = 2 steps cooler (3.2-3.4 pulley setup with supporting mods)
    103 = 3 steps cooler ( lots and lots of mods, cam, IC turbo etc etc)
