170 Degree Thermostat Installation


ZEROED
 Share

Recommended Posts

When I purchased a High Performance Radiator for my 2007 GT-500, it came with a 170 degree thermostat.  I installed the radiator, but not the thermostat.  Car is not tracked, but live in hot Texas.  Should I install it, and what will be the advantages if I do?  Also the thermostat housing looks like a finely machined surface.  Is there a gasket between these surfaces?  Also, I understand  I should adjust the cooling fan limits.  What are those limits?  Thanks.

I don't have an 07, so I can't comment on your thermostat housing. If I remember correctly, my 11 & 14 had an O ring, not a gasket.

To get the max benefit, the fan high / low settings need to be changed in your tune.

The 170* I bought came with settings from the Mfg., they would be able to supply you with the settings for your unit.
