What is the current best thermostat to put in our 73 - 455?
I was looking for a Robert Shaw based on what I have read on the forum. The only place I found them was at Summit and Speedway. NAPA has the re-branded Mr. Gasket. All are now made in China.
I was reading a couple of Vette forums and it seems the Chinese thermostats' quality has fallen off.
Any suggestions?

While on the T'stat subject, the bolts on the t'stat housing are metric. Is this correct for 73? They are the only metric bolts I've run across so far.
Thanks.

A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.
