Low Temp Thermostat for 12V 5.9B

Has anyone out there found a high quality thermostat for the 12V 5.9 in either 160F, 165F or 170F?... If so, I really like the name of the manufacturer.. You can post here or drop me a note direct...... tony@sbmar.com

You do know that the engine runs better at around 190 right?

X2, these aren't gassers, 160 degrees makes less horse, and is far harder on the engine.

Tony, nice web site you guys have! That Envirovent system is interesting. How'd that work on one of our B engine trucks to deal with excessive blow-by. Also do you guys offer engine sound control blankets or kits that would work on a truck engine?

Good luck.
