I once owned one of those fancy billet aluminum housings on my first daytona. After I did the first thermostat on it, I had to replace the O-ring because it wouldn't re-seal. I trashed it and went back to the stock stamped steel housing.
Maybe I'll just get a stock stamped housing and be done with it.
Thanks for the input.
