160 Thermostat - Easy Install?
Just got a tune and had the cooling fan set point lowered
I am going to swap to a 160 T-stat to preserve the timing.
How difficult is this, what has to be removed to get to it?
I assume a burping is in order, anyone have a good technique?
Thank you
BTW- please don't reply that this is a bad idea, I appreciate your opinion but I will be going ahead with this.

If you are fast enough you just remove the bolts and have the new stat at the ready, pull the housing back, remove old stat, drop in the new and button it back up while loosing minimal coolant. Just make sure you have the new stat clocked correctly.
