[Tigers] Chrome Thermostat Housings

[Brent Edinger]

   I had one rot throught after 4 years. With out warning it blew out and
   made  a  big mess. I put a zinc anode in the system to see if it would
   prolong the life of this thing.

   These are a very nice appearance piece and generally seal quite well
   with the double cast O-ring seal if your intake has not corroded
   excessively in this area.  They are made from a diecast material that
   has a limited service life expectancy.  I'd advise you to carry one
   as a spare or change it every three years or so.  The normal failure
   is corrosion through the outside wall with no warning.
