What thermostat will work with the Edelbrock aluminum heads?
Thanks, Ed

Same as for any 59ab engine....with a bit of wires to keep them from running away.

I'm looking for a part number so I can get them local.

From a previous thread. The wires didn’t work so good for me, I have the metal coolant pipes from bob drake, if you put the tube down close to head, and pinch t stat between pipe and head, it does pretty good.

I think it;s just a Chevy stat. Yes, that is a good idea, wish i thought of it.

I think ol Henry deserves credit for that post, it was his research that came up with it. I just saved it for future reference.
