The top one in the picture is type for H, M etc. If you can find a 160 I would have no problem with that however a 180 is more in line with todays thinking. At any rate, the one in the lower view is not going to allow the bypass recirculating feature in these engines to operate. In the early 80's, IH mistakenly listed the wrong style thermostat for these tractors and did a recall on them.

I have couple of H tractors and one is letting coolant just fly on by the thermostat and never warms up with the little dinking around I use it for, so , one of these days I will have to tear into it. I should have stuck a garden hose in the housing while I had it apart last year but I though it would be ok.
