Ok, i don't know much about this 180 thermostat and how it helps or where it is in your truck. Please tell me how it works, if it improves my engine or stuff, tell me. Please tell me EVERYTHING there is to know about this. I would sincerely appreciate it.

I didn't see any difference in it other than my gas mileage went down in cool weather.I went back to the 195 T-Stat seems to run better with it and I have the stage 2 chip and no pinging.Mine is a 94 this might be a better mod for newer daks.

I have the 180 T-stat in my truck (follow the big hose that goes to the top front of the engine). I wouldn't say it does anything for overall performance, but I'm certain it's helpful to the engine. Heats a killer and with this T-stat, my engine runs much, much cooler. Gas mileage hasn't changed either way and thr truck isn't running any differently.
Hope this helps,
David

Do you notice a loss of heat in your cab during the winter months with the 180 stat in?

I have a 180 thermostat too. Ive had it for the past 6 years. It still warms up nicely in the winter. Keeps nice and cool in the summer too.
