I want to get one of those stats also. I have noticed that they dont sell just the thermostat. It looks like it comes with a new houseing as well. Is that what yours looks like? Maybe they sent you the wrong piece. :steering:

Just figured out that gmpartsdirect.com sent me the wrong water pump! Bastards! Different part # and everything...not only that but they just threw the gaskets in the box carelessly and they got ruined :banghead:
