you might try a 180 deg thermostat. The 160 stat you are using doesn't stand a chance of maintaining a steady engine temp and the wide range of temps you are seeing only make tuning more difficult. A 180 deg stat will narrow the range of engine temps you are see and simplify your tuning efforts. The 180 stat will not make you car run hotter. It will keep it between 185-200 rather than 165-200 like is happening now. It will raise the floor but the ceiling won't change.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
