Yes. Looks pretty different on the inside.. Can't comment on its effectiveness as I put it on with my stroker along with a Hesco tstat housing and Champion aluminum radiator. (Nothing to compare). I don't overheat! So at the very least, it works.

I have the Hesco. Same impeller design as the Flowkooler I believe. Honestly can't say I saw any improvement over stock. I would have suggested sticking with stock. Bummer I just saw this now, but I hope it works out for ya!

If you need anything besides a 195* stat, you have other cooling system issues.

I agree. I tried a 180℉ t stat in my 2000 and it only made it run hotter. Seems like the coolant doesn't soak the heat from the block with sitting cooler than 190.
