What is the stock thermostat for a 2002 Camaro? 195 or 180? I want to know because if its 180, I guess there wouldn't be any point in getting a 180 hypertech or jet thermostat, would be about the same I guess.

And if you get anything lower than a 180, let me know so I can hook you up with a resistor so your PCM doesn't give you hell about it.2002 5-spd NBM Camaro

Hmm, ok so my 1999 3.8L Camaro actually has a 195 degree thermo?
Maybe someone should change the tech database since it led me to believe I have the 180 degree thermo already.SLP CAI, K&N, Whisper Lid, 180* thermo, manual fan switch, 3.42 gears, Auburn Pro LSD, Wester\'s PCM Tuning, TSP Rumbler, High Flow Cat. Best Time: 9.909@71.58 (1/8 mile)Comment

I think mine has a 180 in it. Not the most effective method, but we used my friends heat gun to figure out when the thermostat turned on. according to that it was 180, and as far as I know, it's still stock. I remember reading somewhere that some of them came with 180s, is that true? If so, how would I find out for sure.<a href=\"http://pics.projectpredator.com/thumbnails.php?album=16\" target=\"_blank\">2003 Zinc Yellow Mustang GT</a> 1 of 701<br />ET : TBD<br />But our shenanigans are cheeky and fun!

WHat is wrong with a 160 thermo? I have one in my 99 and it runs just fine. I got it to combat detonation w/ n20. Do I need to supplement it with something else?1999 red camaro v6 M5: with a turbo<br />13.52@107.99<br />No, seriously: Who Farted? <br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/600086\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/600086</a>Comment
