What thermostat to run??
Well I am having a problem with my car running really rich and I cant figure out why. I have been talking to many people and have been told to change my thermostat back to stock (180*). MY mods are:
PP Stage II LT1 Heads
CC306
52mm TB
Stock injectors
Dyno Tune
All bolt ons

If the dyno tune got the job done, then nothing should have magically changed since then in regards to the thermostat unless it failed. O2 sensors are another thing.
How did your AF graph look? Do you get SES lights? Do you have ability to check codes on your own?

Yes I have a way to check codes (scanmaster), I dont think the thermostat has failed. I have a cylinder on the driver side (3) that is rich and black from all the gas. The rest of the cylinders are normal. I have not pulled the passenger side header to see what it looks like. I was just told that if I went back to a 180 stat that the rich condition go away.
