Just in case anyone else is looking and can’t find it like me here is the thread size for water temp sensor ports in a 280z thermostat housing. 240z will have the same gauge temp sensor port size. 

Gauge Water temp sensor is m16x1.5

thermo-time is m14x1.5

Fuel injection temp sensor is m12x1.5

themo switch port is 1/4 pipe. 

side port on a 280z is 1/4 pipe

Brilliant, thanks so much for sharing this. Worth pointing out that the ¼ pipe fitting is ISO7 R1/4 thread which is also known as BSPT (Taper), it's not NPT which is a different pitch. (I had thought that NPT and BSP were interchangeable synonyms, but turns out that BSP(T) is a bit finer thread (19 TPI vs NPT's 18 TPI) and they have slightly different thread forms.
