So far all I can find is FILLER NECK types. The car has a filler on the radiator. The T-stat housing is a long neck type with heater stub port.

Everything I see is a short neck for the radiator inlet pipe, the heater stub looks like an overflow outlet to a tank and the device needs a radiator cap!!

Help!!

Thanks in advance

Any part numbers (Ive searched fords FOTZ8592B and the G as well, and they look nothing like what is being sold) would be helpful.

Is this the thermostat housing you’re looking for? If so I bought one on Amazon last week. Ford OEM. Worked great. Search Motorcraft RH111.

I don't need it. Bought it for body parts.
