I have a dual Weber outlet manifold on my FIA. I could not get the engine temp above 160 with an inline thermostat. I tried every thermostat there was, with holes and with out. Rick Parker sugested installing a bypass hose. I installed the hose and now it runs at 180 all day long with a standard 180 in line thermostat. Don't drill any holes, just use a standard Stant or Gates 180 Super Stat. Check out my gallery for pictures.
