Just go to the Summit website, or call 'em. Places like Summit and Jegg's may cater to the V8 pony car crowd, but they are also excellent bussinesses, and pony car shops tend to sell stuff cheaper than P-Car supply shops. And it's often the same exact part...

I've ordered parts from Summit many times, and have always had nothing but the best customer service. They can even help you pick out the right parts if you're not sure.

this type of laziness is not becoming in a /6 owner...
you need to be more personally involved in decisions that affect your engine.
IMO - either delegate the whole thing, or learn everything...

http://www.fluidyne.com/cs_findadealer.html there seems to be exactly one in Canada.

I guesse the next question is what is the right size for the job if running a 3.0 on mostly street

the engine is still in the donor car.....the conversion has yet to be completed

well then - 2 schools of thought... one says put in the biggest cooler that will fit, and a factory or Troutman thermostat.

the other one says pick whichever one is on sale, or the easiest to install. maybe it'll be good enough.
i'd still run a real good thermostat tho.
