Thermostat for '53
 

Just bought a running '53 p/u .Not much to look at but a good summer beater.
It is original and smokes like a trooper.Longer I run it,less it smokes.
Found a couple of Dole DVN-23H thermostats in the glovebox.Stamped 180".

Do these fit this flathead ???

Thanks for your help.

The best stats for 49 to 53's are the old Robertshaw 330 type.
They have a large flow opening which don't restrict the flow.
They are available in 330-160, 330-170 and 330-180. G.M.
