Pat,
The thermostat is from Restoration Supply Co. Reno NV. It fits right nicely
in the hose just above the outlet end of the return water manifold (at least
on the P), and sells for $20. It is a 160 degree unit 1-1/2" in dia. and
2-1/8" long with a bypass hole. They also sell Penrite lube products
including a terrific 1000w steering box goop! And, many other vintage car
type stuff.
<restoration@rsa.reno.nv.us> 24 hr FAX775-825-5663, It's Tom & Dottie and
tell 'em I sent you!
I don't have hardened seats, and DO use a lead sustitute.
