Thermostat Installation

Yep, I have an Eddy intake. I've never seen a T stat housing that was made by Edelbrock. I just looked them up and did see one. I need one with the port though. I use it for a thermometer.

I just got some info from Mustangs Unlimited. They are saying the following.
The Motorcraft part number RT-1152 (same as) YF1Z-8575-BA. That 190 degree stat will not fit this housing with out the aid of a "Dremel"
Motorcraft part number RT-351 (same as) D5PZ-8575-B will fit without modification, this is a 180 degree thermostat.

I didn't realize that there would different diameters of them for Ford small blocks. The thermostat I have is a RT-1139. I wonder if this is the problem. Its what my 95 f150 uses and what 5.0 Mustangs use. Maybe it is the issue. I can't believe it is though. The Mr Gasket water outlet is for fox body 5.0 and so is the T stat I have.
