Re: Thermostat install (alextz)
Why would I want to do this? well when autocrossing the car, the oil temp tends to hover at 225-230, the coolant gets to 200 all the time.
So anyone have directions on how to do the install of the thermostat?

Lift, drain, start the car for 15 seconds, drain again, unbolt the old one, bolt on the new one, fill, start the car, then fill again.
PS - don't over torque the bolts on the thermostat, I did and it snapped right off.
