Re: thermostats for 54 Patty

Good quality capsule-type thermostats will typically outlast the bellow type by a considerable margin. Copper alloys "work-harden" with constant motion and the usual failure mode of a bellows-type is that they develop a crack on the edge of a bellow section. Go for a capsule type and if the proper diameter the ring clip will retain it.
