This part is obviously the perfect replacement for the original thermostat. The item photos aren't very accurate, but mine arrived as a cast aluminum part just like the original. I installed it in my 2003 Trailblazer EXT 4.2L in about an hour. The installation was straightforward and only took a few tools. Tools: 3/8" Breaker Bar 3/8" Ratchet 3/8" Extension (6") 3/8" Swivel Joint 8mm Socket 10mm Socket 15mm Socket Channel Lock Pliers 1 - Disconnect the battery (8mm bolt). 2 - Remove the serpentine belt from the alternator pulley (3/8" breaker bar is used in the tensioner) 2 - Remove the AC line bracket (10mm bolt) from the LF engine lift bracket. 3 - Remove the LF engine lift bracket (3x 15mm bolts). 4 - Fully loosen the lower alternator mounting bolt (15mm). You will not be able to remove the bolt yet. 5 - Remove the upper alternator bolts (2x 15mm) 6 - Tip the alternator forward to access the wiring connections. 7 - Unplug the plastic plug-in connector (no tools) 8 - Pull back the protective boot and remove the battery wire lug (10mm) 9 - Turn the alternator so the pulley is facing up and the brackets are facing left and right. This will allow it to fit between the engine and the radiator fan during removal. Now you will have good visibility and tool access to the thermostat/water neck. The hose clamp can be compressed with slip-joint pliers and the water neck is attached to the block with 2x 10mm bolts. Not much coolant comes out when the hose is removed, but LOTS will come out when the neck is removed. After replacement, the parts can be installed in the reverse order that they were removed. Remember to insert the bottom alternator bolt in the alternator before putting it back in place.
