When I searched, this thread was useless towards a source to buy. Advance Auto Parts only has the stock 192F/195F Thermo and I need to know which auto parts has it. My PCM is programmed to activate the main cooling fan at 200F, and shut off at 180F, so my coolant is going in before it even has a chance to cool (not anything bad since the fan does not shut off anyway LOL), but I would like to add the 160F thermo to help things sync better. Thanks guys... XL

The 160F thermostat is a Stant #13396 from a '96 Mustang GT. I'm sure Autozone or Advance Auto carries them.

Will the 160 t-stat help keep the motor cooler when the car is warmed up?? Or will that just make it warm up slower??

It will help keep it cooler while you are moving. If you are idling or sitting in traffic you are at the mercy of the cooling fans.

Can I use the factory Ford replacement for the 96' Ford Mustang GT, or only aftermarket? Thanks!

they are both the same, with exception of price. I'd just stick with one from Autozone, Napa, or whatever. Save yourself some money. Can't remeber the list price, but I think it was somewhere damn near 30 bucks cheaper at Autozone.
However, I'd call Steve or Bill J and see.

Steve quoted me $7.27 for the thermo, and $4.00 & change for the gasket

That doesn't sound right.. I could have SWORN they were much more. *searching*
Never mind... 13.17 at Fordparts.com.  . Buy it from Steve. Autozone wants 9 bucks plus the gasket.

What temp does the stock PCM pull timing?
When is your re-flashed PCM going to pull timing?
