    Which would be better? 180 or 195 degree thermostat?
    « on: June 25, 2007 - 08:25:40 AM »
    Running a 440 six-pack in a Challenger with a 22" radiator.

    I've never had any overheating problems in the car before... and she's been in traffic on 110+ degree days.

    I was overheating. Car was fine.  :bigsmile:

    I've got the radiator drained for some other issues and figured it'd be a good item to replace.

    Which would be more appropriate for my setup? 180 or 195?

    Also, is it worth it to get a real Mopar part or is the Kragen/Stant special OK to use?
