    37 thermostat question

    When I put mine in I went with the 180 degrees option vs the 160 thinking in Wisconsin I might use the heater. While I have on occasion it is rare. As warm as these engines run I now think the cooler stat would have been the wiser choice. I always obcess with summer running temps and vapor lock.
