Stock Temp Stat & 160 Deg Stat

I've heard a lot about swapping in the 160 degree stat but I was wondering what the stock temperature stat runs at? Is there an "in the middle" type stat that I can use? I've heard a lot of people with heating problems after they swap in the 160 and I realy dont want that, nor do i want it to take too much longer to warm up in the morning (Live out in Vancouver B.C. its cold enough for me =P) hehe =D

Stock is 180º. I would keep it in there for the winter. The 160º is not going to do anything for you right now.

Thats what I was thinking, but is there a 170º temp gauge? =D It would be nice having it run a bit cooler on hot summer days...

For you, keep the stock thermo stat and get a fan switch going.
