This truck is a 1986.5 Nissan Hardbody. It has the Z24 engine. According to my local parts store, Two heat ranges are offered. They are 180 & 195. The OEM according to the parts store is 180. I called the local nissan dealer & the said it was 87C. Conversion is 188.6. I need to know which one is the right one for best performance. Thank you.

Take the 195 I've always used it on the NapZ24 engine with no problems with engine performance
