my mini has pegged over 70k miles and id like to flush the radiator...change the hoses and the thermostat

this is what im lookin at getting:
Samco Rad Hoses
Rad fluid (prolly mini branded or Prestone 50/50)
m7 180 deg t-stat

is the m7 worth it or just stick with stock?

 

I think given your location, the 180º thermostat would be ok. Just don't go skiing in Colorado.
