Default Good performance article

For those of you who haven't seen this, I found what I thought was a very good article at http://www.alltel.net/~wayne/faq.html
This guy seems to know what he's talking about. Enjoy

Right on SLT !!
He was looking for a long time for a 180F thermostat for the LT1......wel we all know that the LT1 comes with a 180F thermostat from the factory. Actually there is no 190F thermostat for the LT1/4 engines available anywhere....only the 160F PowerStat.............and what is all that business with cutting around on the thermostat..........the info on this site is veeeery concerning if novices read and follow it....... :nopity
