Has anyone here done this? If so would you be kind enough to post a t-stat install with pics. It would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Welcome to EBPF shogunal!!
Glad to have you with us!
:WELCOME:

If you search Tstat, T-stat, or Thermostat there are a couple of tricks and a couple of discussions.  I don't believe there is a formal "how-to" posted.

A tip: If you put the year and model of your ride in your signatures you'll get the best reponses sooner!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Welcome to EBPF zamirlihari!!

Glad to have you aboard!
Great community here.  Look forward to sharing knowledge with you.

I'd recommend putting the at least the year and model of your ride... maybe summary of mods too, in your signature so you'll get the best answers quickly.

As far as I know, there is no positioning requirement.  You are the first person to bring it up and there have been a number of installs.

If the brass  "thingy" at the bottom of the  Ford  t-stat pic is what you are talking about then I don't think it matters ..
The Reiche T-stat is not made this way ..
