    thermostats

    I ordered a 160* thermostat for my 03 5.3 and of course its the wrong one. Looks as though the thermostat and housing are 1. I've noticed that hypertech sells a 160 t-stat and housing for the ls1. Will this bolt onto the 5.3 ok?

    Yes, it will work. I believe hypertech and the SLP stat are the same. Texas Speed has them for $47.99

    You can use the new Tstat on older waterpumps with an updated (04+) Tstat housing.
