Default Good (cheap!) place to get lower temp thermostat?

I haven't had much luck finding a thermostat that comes on sooner/lower temp. I know they are out there.

It needs to be for a D series.

Any good suggestions of online stores that I should try would be great!

Thanks!

And don't forget:

My understanding is that 170 is stock temp for the fan to come on. A "racing/performance" thermostat woul dnormally come on @ 160 degrees.

Autozone Failsfae $7 for 170 degrees.

But don't complain about shiity gas mileage, inconsistant timeslips, or other weird issues because the ECU is still in cold start loop.
