Last time I checked we don't have a gasket, just on O-ring. The gasket IIRC is ONLY for V8's where the t-stat sits in the houssing in the intake manifold.

Stazi's right.
When I replaced mine in my last CSVT, I got the 160 degree thermostat and the Dealership sold me a "non returnable" gasket with it... which under further observation, wasn't required. You can use the O-ring from the original Thermostat (if there's no crack, swells, etc), or order one from Ford ($1.22.. not sure of the part number, though)

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.
Incorrect.
The stock Mustang T-stat is 192F.
Hence why a SPECIFIC AFTERMARKET PART NUMBER was listed.
MOST LISTED PARTS have the wrong heat range listed on the box. Most places sell a "labeled" 180F T-stat that is nothing more then a reboxed OEM. {192F}
Also IIRC it's from an 00+ Mustang after the head change and hose routing change. {I'm too lazy to search for my other posts about it  } The earlier ones are too small. Again HENCE the part number.

So which one is it. I want to order one of these before i get my custom chip done. That way it will kinda work together. I called a local parts store and ford dealership and the ford dealership said all they have is the factory ones for the 96 stang gt. And the guy at the local parts store said that they were different parts between the 2 and the mustang one wouldnt fit.

Ordered mine from Advance Auto Parts yesterday. It is indeed the Stant #133966 for a 96' Ford Mustang GT. Available in 180F, and 160F. I got the 160F thank you very much  .

I would hope you can install this yourself rather than pay someone to do it. It's a 10 minute job.

I hope so too. I just invested money into a new set of tools so I have assumed 80% of all mechanical jobs done on the car from today on...

Have you nominated the "out of style" Miami Vice gear for work attire?!  . I know I know, you gotta look "fly" at any one moment no matter what circumstance.

He's got steel-toe leather mesh penny loafers, a DuPont Teflon coated hawaiian shirt and stainguard impregnated white linen sailing slacks - he should be good togo.
