Actual LS1 stock thermostat reading inside! Up early this morning and wanted to figure out what actual LS1 reading would be on stock stat. Seems to be a lot of debate and requests what the stockers are from factory and what they are stamped with.
So started cooking up some water and stat. 2000 Camaro Z28 stat.........looked to actually start opening just a bit around 189 then at around 192 I could clearly see it was starting to open. It gradually slowly starting opening all the way to about 210 give or take a couple or few. Im sure they all differ depending on mileage and what not. So thats it, a stock thermostat starts to open around 192 and is fully open at around 210 degrees. THANKS!
Hope someone finds this info useful, I guess I did
What a way to spend a morning!!
