Best Automotive Performance Thermostats
Unlike the OE themostats that continually open and close to achieve the proper operation temperature and flood the engine with coolant, the Stant SuperStat has a patented V-notch, non linear design that reduces cycling by precisely metering the amount of coolant needed. The SuperStat uses a high flow venturi for maximum cooling capacity during high temperature high load operation, and employes a patented Weir Valve, for percision flow metering during cold weather light load operation, to ensure stable temperature control under all conditions.The power element of the SuperStat is comparable to those used in the heavy duty trucking industry. Stainless steel flange for longer life and strength.

"OEM style thermostat that I replaced on my 1995 Ford F-150 5.0L when replacing the water pump."
"I drilled a 1/8" air bleed hole at the top of the thermostat in the 12:00 position."
"This is exactly what I needed, and of high quality."

"Can't go wrong, nice replacement while I was replacing a tube and pump anyway."
"It works my car actually doesn't over heat because it works for my jeep cherokee."
"When I drop that stant in a hot water next to a 160 (an old robert shaw -that works great) you almost can't tell them apart for opening rate.I just tested an ever growing collection of small block thermostats."
The Mishimoto Chevrolet Duramax low temperature thermostats activate at a lower temperature than the OEM thermostats, making them the perfect solution for Duramax owners who live in warmer climates, or use their trucks under heavy load or strenuous driving conditions.

"With a special adapter, I use it in a classic sports car instead of the car's original $85 thermostat."
"Thermostat works great, engine stays just under 180 degrees when cruising and around 185-190 in traffic."
"Stant always makes a great thermostat, but they're getting hard to find in local parts stores."
"Made a noticeable improvement to my vehicle's cooling."
"So far so good, Stant has a good reputation, hope there still made in America, not sure, will review again after a year...."
"Looks to be of good quality workmanship and materials, should last me through the year till next time change ."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I installed it myself having never installed a radiator before and the only thing to note is that I had to trim my lower radiator hose because this radiator is wider than the original."
"I have had this rad installed for about a year now, no leaks or issues since install."
"Now the replacement cap I picked up was only about 12 dollars at the store, the point is that when buying a aftermarket radiatior and spend a few hundred dollars you don't expect to have to change the cap immediately."
"It is nice to know we have extra cooling capacity for some simple stage 2 mods, and the all metal durability is great."
"I bought this item because my stocker radiator(109k) had starting leaking where the top plastic tank connects to the aluminum core. If i have furture problems with this port i will just have it welded shut and use my lower hose as my drain."
"It came in a thick cardboard box, surrounded by an inch of corrugated padding, sealed in a 15-20 mil "clean room" type packaging, and with caps over the inlet and outlet. In summary, while I've only just installed this unit and it's winter so I can't speak on the performance, all indicators are that I am going to be very satisfied in the long run."
"Perfect fitment for my 02 WRX."
"Very impressed with this radiator, did my research and the warranty/customer service guided me to buy this one."

Find Best Price at Amazon"So after the transmission was replaced I still got a "HOT OIL" warning like before. Ever since the install I have yet to get the "HOT OIL" warning so I feel that it is doing its job."
"5 stars because of fast shipping, quality looking design, ease of installment, and the extras it comes with (although I only used the hose, zip ties and the foam protector pads)."
"it has consistently reduced my trans temp from 200* to 170*-180* on those humid 100* Louisiana days."
"I like the plate design which allows for mounting using the plastic straps through the radiator or if you want to build a mounting bracket there are holds and supplied bolts to do that. The 4 feet of transmission hose that comes with the cooler was enough for me but that is mostly due to the way I mounted it."
"Used this to bypass the in radiator tranny cooler in my 3rd Gen 4runner."
"I installed it then had my tranny flushed for good measure before a long trip hauling a heavy trailer- the transmission shop said this was the one they recommend installing, so I take that as a good recommendation."
"This unit fit perfectly on my 65 Ranchero."
"My AW4 in my XJ seems much happier and shifts much smoother now that it's not overheating from running oversized tires."
