The parts book tells all. Note that the 38-39 six and eight 1600-1, 1700-1 are not listed as they do not have cylinder head t-stats, they have radiator shutter t-stats. Then, of course, they do not have thermostat retainers.

As the shutter t-stats start opening at 135 degrees ( if they still work) it is possible to install a 180 degree thermostat and circular retainer and have modern performance.
