Why, are you having problems or just want to replace it for the sake of it? Buy one from your local auto parts store and forget about on line for something that minor.

well, I am a big fan of running hot in the winter, and cold in the summer... especially for racing season... ok, schucks, napa, any of those places - $4-10 at most... I personally reccomend the HQ 160* for summer, and stock 195* in winter... it takes me about 5-10 min to change it out, really easy to do... PM if any more questions.

dont drive car in winter, i was thinking of just getting a 180 or even a stock 192

160 is way too cold in my opinion. I agree on the Mr Gasket 180.

There is nothing wrong with a 160, i ran a 160 all summer and winter one year. And we get below 0 degree temps here, no probs at all. Car ran the balls when it ran that cold.

Anyways, i would just do a 180, its a good allaround thermo. But like i said before - When u get a chip, tell them to turn ur fans on around 180ish, that should keep the car nice and cool.

some people say 160 is fine and some say dont do it. Personally I wouldent do it b/c our cars are so computer controlled and they have to reach a certin temp to be under "optimal" driving conditions and w/a 160 everything just dosent warm up like it should.

160 is plenty high as far as the computer is concerned.

I had 192 when I bought my Stang , than I change to 180 and after a few months change again to 160 , car run fine , cold on summer and colder on winter , I have autometer gauge where show me 170 with high speed fan on , or 210 without high speed
My friend who have 10s 94 Mustang tell me 160 is too much , and engine could run rich, in next a few weeks I gonna switch again to 180
