What is the diameter of a stock thermostat? I know that the stock temp is 180. Would a 195 degree thermostat offer any advantages or benefits?

Go ahead and save that weird car, the sedan, the 6 cylinder, the C-Body. If you want a big block musclecar and that's all you care about, your missing the point.

The Stant 180F Superstat (Part number 45358) diagram shows 2.125" OD.
