Consider spending a few dollars more and getting the fail safe 'stat.

So if I went in oreillys and asked for one for a 03-04 cobra that would work in the mm?

Thanks Jim. You beat me to it since I am working and posting at the same time.

I believe you can get them on Amazon if you can not get one locally.

And while you're at it, read this link:

This is a must whenever the cooling system is opened (other than removing the reservoir cap).

should i look into getting the tune redone for a cooler T-stat? or just look and change fan kick on temp points?

[lttljp15]

im a ford tech and own a air lift which will take care of any air in the system, i plan on doing the cooler t-stat proably with 180, I just think 170 is to cool for wisconsin weather. also im pulling the crossover tube to clean them and re paint due to paint issues

Read Reisch's recommendations.

If you have a cooler thermostat you should be able to run more timing and use a colder heat range spark plug.

[lttljp15]

when i start running a cooler stat what heat range plug should i be at rightnow im running oem plugs

That would be a decision your tuner should make.

If you've not had a performance tune done to the car (i.e advanced the timing) no need to even change the thermostat.

it does have a tune made from somone on these fourms and is putting down 305whp
