Does anyone know of a good quality brand Thermostat Housing [upper and lower], something between the $450 Motorcraft version that the dealer sells and the $57 Dornan from Rock Auto [and other auto part stores]? I replaced my Thermostat Housing last year with a Dornan and it has never sealed property. when I went to tighten one of the bolts yesterday, it sheered -off. I was able to drill it out and replace with a bolt and nut combination, but the seal is still not good. all bolts are super tight, so I am thinking maybe the Dornan brand not so high quality? Finally, I see Rock Auto also has one by Four Seasons - anyone have experience or opinions on that brand?
