160 Thermostat
Does anyone know if GM makes a 160 thermostat? I have a 2001 coupe and I believe that the thermostat is built into the housing also.

I'm getting ready to change the coolant and was just thinking it might be a good idea.
I live in Texas and do quite abit of stop and go driving, as it gets quite hot here. Car usually runs about 210-220, which I know is normal for these cars. Just thought cooler would be better.

It is actually a matter of great debate. We have had some historic and heated treads in the past.
Many will tell you that it is a bad idea because the car was designed to run hot.
Many will tell you it's a must.
