Water pump comparisons

What about the thermostats ? My 8BA ran 190-195 with 160 stats. Changed to 180 stats with a 1/16 hole drilled in them and it ran at 180-190...190-195 on hot days. Drivers side was a few degrees hotter, but not a problem.

No thermostats, and running straight water for the summer.

Try a bottle of Purple Ice. This coats the inside surfaces
of the block and heads and transfers the heat into the
water. There is another product named Water Wetter. G.M.
