: Hi Tim, Just a few words of advice on that
: housing. The thermostat sits inside the
: housing and is held there by a steel collar.
: Most stats will be held in place at the top
: of the head but these are a different setup.
: I had to make the collar out of a steel
: conduit coupler.

: Steve: Thank you Steve, but are you sure? I
: thought the FC thermo housing had a side
: outlet for the top radiator hose due to
: clearance issues with the top engine cover
: panel while the Willy wagons, trucks and
: Kaiser guys used a thermo housing that had
: the hose come out the very top of the thermo
: housing? I don't think that one will clear
: my engine cover panel?

: If you can't find a thermostat housing for
: your L6-226 from an FC truck, try the

: same on Kaiser Cars, as well as Willys
: wagons and pickups.
