how to take out a thermastate

[bigbadbubba]

how do you take it out of the 450r. i heard about it but i have no clue how to do it. how much does it work. is it worth it

I wouldnt do it. The thermostat slows down the circulation enough to let air cool the coolant while its in the radiator. This is my opinion ofcourse.

It helped mine. I was boiling just about all the coolant out every race from it getting so hot. I replaced the thermostat first but that didn't help. According to my FX temp sticker mine is running about 30 degrees cooler without it. All you have to do is take out the three bolts at on the left front side of the head where the hose conects the head to the radiator. Once you have that round piece off the thermostat will just slide out.
