JEGS O-Ring Style Thermostat Housing Ford 429/460

Why would I buy a hundred friggin dollar t-stat housing? This works just fine chrome is very good. Only complaint is the same for every manufacturer that makes these with an o-ring seal. Why in the heck is it on the darn t-stat and not sealing on the intake? they all leak. Just use a standard t-stat gasket and all is good , throw the oring in the trash.

it leaks and the bung hole wasnt treaded properly for my temp sensor so i had to have it recut to thread properly then after all that it still leaked from the o ring not seating in the groove properly.
