Same here and had no issues. My issues only started when I added that back strap.
Its changes on the F Body too. Because the previous design was dumb...… You have to mess with your alternator to change the thermostat. I agree the engineers do things for reasons, but they also get rid of them for reasons too.
if I have to spend money on it I think Im just going to buy one of the aftermarket kits.
