[@nvlavoz6424]

How many extra holes did you drill on the thermostat and what size hole?

[@Almostboosted]

I cut the tap to open up the first hole. Then I drill two 1/8 in extra holes.

Great info man, thanks.

[@Almostboosted]

Thank you 🙏

I was going to buy the version 2 ktuned neck that allows you use oem thermostat=$200 but I think I’ll go this route instead thanks for sharing 👍

[@Almostboosted]

That's exactly what I was going to do at first. But I starter to research different types of "stand thermostat " designs, like the old v1 utilizes and figure it out.

@@Almostboosted hey quick question are u running AC? ...i see from the video u are not running a PS .....would like to know what size belt you running and radiator fan...(part no etc if u have it) thanks 👍 nice vid, great content

Hey, thank you . No I'm not running AC I believe is 50 or 52in 7 v rib came with the ktuned k24 idler pulley. And the radiator fan a 12in spall fan 1700 cfm.

[@XxCrAzY509xX]

I’m having a similar issue except my kswap civic runs supper cold , so it has to be a type r thermostat? Or will b16/gsr work ?

[@Almostboosted]

Yes a gsr and b16 should worke had someone message me telling me that the gsr work for them have the fan kick on much later temp like 190

[@OutOfOrderMai]

Nice! You mind sharing the part number for the o-ring for the integra thermostat?

[@Almostboosted]

I had to re use the old one since Integra one is to bulky to fit in the K-series Swivel thermostat housing. Let me see if I could research it and I will update you.

[@Almostboosted]

This is a shot in the dark try to see if this one works because it canot be bulky. Stant 27279 Thermostat Seal, Medium a.co/d/iD5y6FE

[@OutOfOrderMai]

@@Almostboosted thanks for letting me know

[@OutOfOrderMai]

@@Almostboosted I ended up using the gasket that came with the thermostat housing and I used an oem GSR thermostat. Works perfect with no overheating. Thanks again for making this video!

[@Almostboosted]

Thank you for the update! I'm glad I was able to help. At what Temps does the GSR thermostat opens?

[@rodolfoguardado4383]

So this type r thermostat will work with no problem right

[@Almostboosted]

Yes, it did for me with zero issues. Drilling the 3 evenly space holes, made it work better.

[@Almostboosted]

My buddy in San Diego is running same thermostat as me with no issues.

[@rodolfoguardado4383]

@@Almostboosted what o ring you use any part number on it if you can help me on that please

[@Almostboosted]

So on the o ring I couldn't find the exact one or part number I just reused the one that came with the swivel thermosta

@@Almostboosted drilling holes in the thermostat???

[@alomechanthasinh4079]

So how is it holding up so far?

[@Almostboosted]

Is amazing, I drive it in 90° F plus and no overheating. I have the fan quick on at around 185° F and the most it went up to was 190° F

You could try as long as is a " stand style thermostat " it would fit.
