What is the advantage of a 180-degree thermostat?

A 180-degree thermostat opens at a lower temperature than a stock thermostat, which can help your engine reach its optimal operating temperature more quickly. This can be beneficial for performance and efficiency, especially in modified or swapped LS engines.

Does this thermostat come with a gasket?

This thermostat is sold individually. It is recommended to check the manufacturer's instructions or consult with a parts specialist to confirm if a gasket is included or if it needs to be purchased separately for your specific installation.

Can this thermostat be used in California?

No, this thermostat is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California due to emissions regulations.
