[QUOTE="Big Bore, post: 53294, member: 760"] I'm not positive on the specifics of this, but the advantages of having a conventional diesel engine at an optimum temperature to facilitate a better combustion have to be weighed against the side effects of using oil that is 8 degrees warmer in the injectors/HPO system of the 7.3 Powerstroke, which (especially in the case of dual/higher flow pumps) becomes even hotter, and is then dumped back into the crankcase into oil that is already 8 degrees hotter, which then raises the temperature, which is then run back into the HPO reservoir, through the injectors again, etc etc etc... Ford changed the t-stat for a reason. So I guess at that point you have to decide whether to go with Ford engineers or International engineers. Finding out why Ford changed it would be a good place to start, but I'm betting it's related to the HPO system. [/QUOTE]
