What brand is recommended for these? Trying to get the best prices I can on everything. I am going to get a 180 degree stat this time.

Thermostats: I have seen the Stant Premium brand that Advanced sells, and Napa sells a weird looking Heavy Duty 180 degree stat.

Radiator Cap: Napa sells a house brand, and other places have no names.

Thanks.

Brand doesn't matter a ton on these. I'd go with the Moto-Rad Fail-Safe thermostat. IIRC Advance will sell them, maybe Autozone.

I've always used the Stant Superstat that Advance sells. I've never had any trouble with them, and they have a lifetime warranty.
