Attention 3100's

I know that most of us 3100 V6 owners have had a hard time finding a 180 degree T-stat, but i have found one and intalled it. It is the Hypertech part number HYP1020. It was 15 bucks and took about all freekin day to install along with a coolant system flush. It work pretty good. My engine used to run a little over 200 degrees and at a stop it sometimes reached 225. Now with the new one it runs a little under 200 and at a stop doesn't get any hotter then 205. I am pleased with the results, just wish it didn't take soo much effort to get to the T-stat housing, plus i am only 18 and this is my first car.

Is it just me, or do most 3100s on here seem to run hotter than my 3.1L?? I mean, Im on a stock 195 T-stat, new coolant, original water pump and radiator, and while driving my car NEVER hits 220*, seriously. Maybe they just run hotter, just curious

Robby, Brian and I are just fuckin around. I just removed the plenum for some cleaning and to replace the gaskets. Once Brian saw the pic, one thing just lead to another which lead to another, etc. Its all one big joke.
