Thermostat

Getting ready to flush and fill the radiator with fresh anti-freeze. Also planning to replace the thermostat. What temp thermostat should I be running in my 1976, F350, 460 with C6? Thanks in advance for replies/recommendations.

Thanks

I checked with local parts house after posting, and they did tell me the OEM replacement was 195. I've been running a 180--can't remember why right now.

Use a 195 for better fuel economy.
