Default Replacing water pump LS1

Hi,
I´m in progress to replace my OE WP.
Read some thread saying WP today are LS2 replacement and you must also purchase new Thermostat and Thermostat house.

I have ordered this WP from RA:

ACDELCO 252846 {#19195105} [Water Pump] Professional|; Does Not Include Mount Bolts; Includes Gasket; Does not include Thermostat Housing.
https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...1357095&jsn=11

Do i need to order new Thermostat and Thermostat house for above WP?
If yes, is this the correct part?

ACDELCO 12T84D {#19137262} Professional Info
Temperature: 187F; Includes housing and seal; w/ Original water pump requiring integrated thermostat and housing.; OEM Recommended Temp


Advise needed asap since my location is Sweden and shipping takes some time.....

Yes you need both. Might want to start thinking about replacing the hoses too. By now they're pretty old.
