Re: thermostat
The 180 degree stat will help to lower the temperature of the car. It should also help with performance slightly. Just be careful that the fans come on at the appropriate time so that you don't kill the engine due to heat. To install drain coolant down slightly, follow top radiator hose to top of manifold. Thermostat housing on top. Remove housing and pull out old stat. and remove old gasket. Reinstall new stat and gasket put housing back in place and tighten, not too tight it will crack.
Refill coolant at radiator cap, start engine and check for leaks. Allow engine to warm up until thermostat opens, coolant level will drop, refill and replace cap. Job complete!!!
