thermo temp with flow kooler

i'm gonna order a flow kooler water pump and was wondering what thermostat i should get, they have 160, 180, 195, and 205 degrees. My jeep's temp would creep up a bit, then if it got over 200, it could get a little hard to keep it down. But, that was with a cracked overflow and stuff, so there was air in the system. Personally, i just hate the idea of over-heating, i'm sick of changing head gaskets, my eclipse eats them for breakfast, so i want this bad boy cool. Any problem with the 160 thermo?

Get a 195, your fuel injection will thank you. A Flowcooler water pump won't help, if the rest of the cooling system isn't working correctly. I've had a Flowcooler for a number of years, but it didn't help when my thermostat didn't open up this summer.

i've replaced the radiator and overflow, i want the flow kooler because they're said to be a little more reliable and flow a bit more at lower rpm...i'm sure it's a lot of talk...but i'm hopin' quality will be a little better...thanks for the info though, i really appreciate that. 195 it is.

im running a 180 in mine with the flow cooler and a 3 core radiator, and it works great. if you drive in more hot weather then i would recomend a 180 or lower, and if you drive more in the winter then get the 195. if your new radiator IS NOT a 3 core i would strongly recomend chucking it and getting a new one that is a 3 core one.

another thing you might want to keep in mind is that you dont want to get too low of a thermostat as it will not close when it should not letting the coolent sit in the radiator long enough to cool and you will overheat even worse.
