[6pack] Stant Superstat thermostat

[David Friedlander]

Not sure about twice the price. Stant makes their # 45358 as their 
"Premium Thermostat" for
180 degree opening for the TR6 
(http://www.stant.com/part_locator/index.cfm).

Rock Auto has them at $4.59 each

The standard TRF thermostat  is their GTS104 which sells for $6.98
