In my 97 i had a 180, never had any problems what so ever. Any auto parts store. you can use a 160, but in the winter time, it wont blow as hot so you might be cold.
<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2245261\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2245261</a> Green 1997, 105k, all stock except for Z28 front springs, Air shocks in the rear, home made coolant recovery tank, home made battery hold down.
I live in michigan and have driven my camaro in 30-45 degree weather within a couple minutes of driving I have hot heat with my 160* thermo that was no different than before the swap. I do not drive it in the winter though so no idea how it is below 30*.
Being that you live up north, I would definitately go with the 180 degree thermostat. Though, it's really your personal preference and choice to go with whatever you wish.

Also, not to sidetrack the thread, but how could I go about finding a list of the stock parts my '97 firebird 3800 II v6 came with. Mainly I am curious about what gears I have in it, because I was thinking about purchasing the 3.42's . Any help is greatly appreciated.
I will keep that in mind, thanks for the offer. Let me find out what my car has and if it doesn't have them, then I believe I will purchase them. But, if by some chance I do have the 3.42's already, then sorry I couldn't help you get them off of your hands.
