All of my everyday driver vehicles have had the 195 thermostats and a/c and have never had a cooling issue in Michigan.
We get a few hot days, not like Tom S in Cali. The 64 GTO, (owned forever) has always run a 180 degree thermostat. Lived in Missouri for several years (Hot days and Cold nights many times.) Never have run a 160 Thermostat because, if I was worried about too much heat in the Engine/ Radiator, I always ran a restrictor ring and dialed in the temp I wanted to see in the engine. I was always wanting to remove the moisture in the engine (OIL) quickly. Water is H2O. None of those elements are good with liquid petroleum products in engines for bearing/crankshaft loads. Tom V.

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.
