Install a Milodon 160 deg thermostat! They make the engine a cooler place.

Dan,
I replaced the existing 160 Stant unit with another 160 Stant unit with no difference. I even drilled a tiny bleed hole in it to get rid of trapped air.

Have you had any better results with the Milodon unit? Better flow maybe?

Default Gramma's Car won the Year One 17" Ralley Wheels

Talk about a shock! I got a call this afternoon from Year One telling me that I won the contest give-away set of 17&quot; Ralley Wheels for my Gramma's Firebird. I initially thought it was somebody trying to sell me something, so I almost hung up on him. Turns out I haven't been answering my Facebook notifications so they had to track me down from an old purchase invoice that matched by name.

Now I have to buy some rubber for these rims. Any suggestions?

Here's a shot of one of the rims from someone who recently bought a set:

Congratulations! Throw those babies on the Trans Am to give it a different look.

When they called I thought it was a practical joke since it was my birthday a couple days ago. I figured the wife put them up to it. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]
