Re: who makes a low temp thermostat
Hypertech makes a 160* thermostat. Search for how they work and what people have said about them. A lot of debate on them. I personally have a 160* hypertech in my 97 camaro.

"""will it make a big difference from the stock thermo"
OMG www.howstuffworks.com has a good explenation on how things work
the stock 195*F thermo stops the coolant flow until the coolant temp reaches 195*F, then it lets it flow
if you get a 160*F thermo it will stop coolant flow up until 160*F then it lets coolant flow resume.
very big difference in coolant temp
it might mess up your cooling fans unless you tune the car's computer
this belongs in General Tech a thermo is a simple mechanism
Intense is giving out free thermos to everyone that places an order, although the thermo is probably worth the same as its shipping cost. I have one2k2 camaro, K&N, SLP whisper lid, Konis, AEM, HP Tuners, Angel eyes/Halos, CF SS ram air hood, 4.10s, Zexel Torsen, UMI SFCs, CrossFire, BFGs, Gatorback, Catco, Flows, and TLC! DONT feed the Trolls!
