need a thermostat housing for a 250 I6

Well now I've done it. Went to put in my new thermostat, tightened up the outlet, felt it give and SNAP!!! I know way better than this. I don't know what I was thinking. So, now I am looking for a new housing and outlet for my 250. Langdon says he has one but was hoping to find something closer to me in Tucson or Phoenix. Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

Try Autozone, Carquest, Napa, O'Reillys. Not necessarily in that order.

Re: need a thermostat housing for a 250 I6

the rules you agreed to when joining state you are not permitted to post a WTB (want to buy) as a non subscriber.
You can brouse the parts board and see if anyone has the part you are looking for.

if you need to make a repair in a hurry, why not just braze it.
