This picture here shows both bolts. They are 10mm. And STOP with the damn torque wrench. You don't need it. Just snug them down nicely. Its not a critical part like torquing down the crank shaft bolts. Don't go incredible hulk tight, but tight.
Also, to get the old t-stat out you have to push down on those tabs and twist it, then it will come out. You'll see what I mean. Its kind of spring loaded in place.
No. Just let the coolant leak out when you pull the housing off, it won't be that much. Then top off the coolant when your done.
BUT.....start the engine with the radiator cap off. Top off the coolant, then wait for it to warm up and you see the coolant start to flow inside the radiator looking in through the fill cap. About 10-12 minutes. Top it off, then put the radiator cap back on. That will get the air out of the system. Just top it off with hose water and you'll be fine.

Hose water! Are you in the South? 3 weeks ago in Chicago it hit -22 F in my town. LS1's deserve at least 50/50 every time here.
Current temp is 3 F with a predicted high of 9 F today. Burrr

Verdad Gallardo I've seen many smaller Iguanas over the years, like 2-3 feet, this was HUGE. They're all still scared to death of people. One step towards them and they haul ***. This things head stood about 10 inches high. I guess they really can't hurt you as in a bite, right? But I guess they can give you a good tail whip.
