Yeah I've heard different stories... Ramsport did the repair and used new bolts. Might be a good idea, so I'll probably do it. Advance Auto has them for $33.

Could I put in a 160 thermostat in or is that not hot enough? Going to replace with either that or a 180. Which is better?

I'll just do a 180 since that's what I've always heard and read what to do. I was just wondering if the 160 would be any better but I doubt it or it would be recomended

knowing how warm these engines run, 160 is probably close to being in open loop still...

Yeah 180 would be the way to go, that's what I'm gonna do. I've been watching a video on this on youtube and it doesn't really seem all that difficult
