Get the 80.  87 is the original and the engine is designed to run at that
temperature.  Going with the 80 will result in slightly lower gas mileage,
but you gain in engine longevity.

Subject: Thermostats at Bus Depot

Listees,

I'm replacing the waterpump on my 84 westy.  Bus depot sells it along
with two types of thermostats:  one is an 80 degree (celsius I presume)
and the other at 87.  Any thoughts as to which I should get?

Thanks,

Les
