thermostat compatability with FC ?

the after market T-stat that was in the engine would barely open at 195 F

can I use an FC thermostat ? All the upper tier thermostats just list use in FC

Autozone and the like offer el cheapo t-stats, the kind designed to last for 2 years, because it is beyond most people that they keep a car more than 2 years.

Are Rockauto's motorad thermostats good enough ? which temperature should I get?
