I can tell you the 180 Thermo would be about a 15-20 minute job if I had one of these to remove the damn hose clamps.

Have a 180T stat to install but I dont see temps over 200 but expect I might once summer gets here. Headliner will get new fabric and fix leak in roof. Have an oil pressure gauge to install just trying to get clever on where to install it and look clean. Like others I need to fix the wheel arches as well. And last I need to give the car a good detailing inside and out. I keep it pretty clean but still needed.
