Don't waste your time with old crap. Get a brand new set from Clark.

I put a set in my engine when I replaced my crappy Chinese shroud with a Cooled1 replica thing shroud. Couldn't be happier. Solved the overheating issues I had on long freeway and 5%< grade runs.

Per Gordon's post, Clark has the older bellows-style thermostats, but they're pricey because they're getting rare.  On my Spyder, I couldn't use one because the exhaust is in the way, so I fabbed up a Triumph choke cable to operate the flaps manually  

And +1 on ditching the OEM straight blade cheesehead screws  I used SS pan head allens, spring washers, and locktite on mine.
