the only differences is most make you buy the seal separate from the Thermostat.
one brand even uses custom seal, that only works on THEIR Thermostat.
ok good.
THE MANUAL ON THIS CAR TELLS YOU THAT IS NORMAL. RTM? J18 IS REVERSE FLOW COOLANT, THIS IS HOW IT WORKS, THERMOSTAT UP FRONT, ECT ON REAR OR HEAD RUNS HOTTER.
What I remember is I did install them correctly. The old thermostat is still work. Only the rubber seal was broken.
