Wrong part. I'm assuming he needs the front cooler thermostat.

PP in the 911 Classifieds is the most active on the web.

On all but one of the cars I've done, I put a Mocal thermostat with -12AN fittings on the lower firewall.

The last car I built we had a smaller cooler under the rear trunk floor without a thermostat. It's close enough to the engine that the internal thermostat will be enough.

Actually, the right part.... in a way. Troutman will supply you with one of those inside a housing of their own manufacture
for use as an Aux cooler thermostat. -12 or -16 fittings.

I've got one of those I'll send you Steve... I don't think it's of much use unless you have a troutman housing but the offer's there. Ask JP to help you set it up...
