Thank you Jon. Never heard of (or seen) the 400 series though. ;)

Subject: Re: DML: 99 V6 T-Stat
HERE is the thermostat situation for Dak V8s and V6s, as I understand
it: (These are all Autozone/Robert Shaw part numbers)
330-180: I have seen a couple of posts from people who have said they
installed this t-stat in their 4.7 V8s. Perhaps this is the
origin of this P/N. I can't confirm wether or not this is
the proper t-stat for the 4.7, but it definitely is *not*
listed
as the proper t-stat for the 3.9/5.2/5.9.
370-180: This part number has been thrown around a lot, but the only
Daks this is applicable to are those with 5.2 or 5.9 V8s
which
have been equipped with the Mopar Performance MPI intake
manifold.
400-180: *THIS* is the part number which is listed as the proper
t-stat
for the 3.9/5.2/5.9.
GT755-180: This is the "generation two" version of the 400-180.
Note: The "180" in the above part numbers is the heat range, and
referrs
to the degrees F at which the t-stat will open (approximately).
"195" is the stock range; there is also a "160" available for
most (if not all) of the above part numbers.
The above info was gleaned from personal experience and a painful
search across many different model years at Autozone's web site. If
there is any problem with the above info, please speak up. It is my
belief, however, that the above is the truth, the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth. Now can we please stop throwing around incorrect
part numbers? ;-)
