Thermostat?

Does the LS3 have the typical 192* thermostat installed from the factory?
I've seen temps as low as 187* on the dash display while driving so it made me wonder.
Prolly change the 'stat to the SLP 160* unit anyhow...

I would not recommend you change it. Sounds like your temps are perfect. If it's not broke dont' fix it. 160 is too cold IMO.

Rick, do some digging in here and you'll find a lengthy debate on your question.
