Reply to "Flowcooler's 333-180 Series Substitute"

What their change will do is reduce the amount of coolant recirculating through the engine during warm-up. This change is not as intrusive as others, but I agree with you Bayani, I'd rather use the OEM parts. In doing it this way they join a bunch of other companies and businesses who choose to re-engineer a perfectly working system rather than just provide the correct parts to begin with.

The model 333 is just a 330 with a small copper flange pressed onto the bottom "plug". My understanding was that the reason they stopped manufacturing the model 333 thermostat was because the tooling for the small copper flange was worn-out. I find it interesting they chose to tool-up to produce orifice plates rather than just renew the worn-out tooling for the copper flange.

Thanks for sharing the information.
