9 foot box Posted January 4, 2020 Report Share Posted January 4, 2020 Rockauto is good for brand and part numbers. Post a picture of your engine and car. It could make a difference on what you need, without assuming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpollo Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 the bypass is not part of the thermostat or its housing on Dodge after 1950. any Chrysler product 6 except the Spitfire series uses a conventional thermostat, Seems to me one from a 318 should work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lepic56 Posted January 8, 2020 Report Share Posted January 8, 2020 hi,, how about, in the engine conpartement,, the heater door lever on the heater box, where the cold/hot control cable from the inside the cab meets. on the heater box it should said ''hot ''or ''cold'' . that should match the control inside,, make sure it's at ''HOT'', if you have no heat stilll, maybe the door is broke,, Or from the heater core, a hose which connects, most of the time,, to the valve at the back of the cylinder head, the valve could be close or clog..
