it is an entire unit. the housing has been machines out of billet aluminum. the aftermarket thermostat only have seal issues and cause the car to overhear. so 319 for a functioning thermostat that will not fail in the middle of no where is worth it

There have been lots of reported failures with the 30-60 dollar thermostats right back to 2013 when the C7 came out (also when there were no other options for a thermostat on the LT1 except to change the housing). I had the LMR unit in my 2014 and also one in my 2016 Z06 and never had an issue. I assume I will be putting one in my 2017 Z06 now as well, I just have to wait and see what myself decides to do, my left and right hemispheres are supposed to have a quick meeting here in a few days.

Yes, the billet looks VERY nice under the hood.
