There is no same thermostat housing, there are many different ones with different angles, metro ones normally have the spacer underneath with heater take off like some late 1275s

Cool thank you. I knew they were pretty similar bud didn't want to commit to buying the wrong one! Obv with cooling being a big prob with turbo'd minis i was going to run with out a thermostat or would u guys recommend a low opening temp one?

If running without a stat you'd need a blanking sleeve to create a restriction to the flow in order for the cooling system to work as it should
