Title: thermostat housing for offenhauser intake
Post by: pjetri6@aol.com on February 25, 2011, 02:24:50 PM
Hello,  I am installing a offenhauser dual port manifold on my TR8 and I need a new thermostat housing with the additional small water inlet. The one I have , the large  inlet interfears with the distributor.  I have not been able to find a replacement that will work.  It has been suggested I plug off the additional small water inlet and use my original TR8 thermostat housing.  I would rather find a new housing instead of plugging things up.  Can anyone help.   Thanks, Paul

I may have one. I will have to look into my box of odd ball thermostat housings. It might be a be a buick but still the same in the end.
