Product Description

The Mishimoto MMTS-VET-97L Low Temperature Racing Thermostat is designed for a wide spectrum of GM vehicles equipped with LS-series V8 engines, including Corvettes, Camaros, Silverados/Sieras, Tahoes/Yukons, and Cadillac CTS/CTS-V models from 1997-2013. By activating coolant flow at approximately 160 °F, this thermostat engages earlier than typical stock units, helping improve coolant circulation and reduce engine operating temperatures under load and during performance use.

This direct-fit thermostat installs easily into the factory thermostat housing and is ideal for daily drivers, tow vehicles, and performance builds seeking more stable engine temperature control. Backed by Mishimoto's Lifetime Warranty, the MMTS-VET-97L offers enhanced thermal management and durability for a variety of GM LS-engine applications.
