I wouldn't go for the lower thermostat unless I knew for sure that GM did a bad job of engineering and that a 180f would work better.

Is your car overheating? No.
So why are you trying to spend all this money on it? None of those products will improve performance or durability. Well, I take that back... your wallet will be a lot lighter.
