Zfreak Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Im working on the finishing touches on my sbc and I need to know witch location is best for the water temp sending unit. Should I install it in the head or in the intake manifold? Im using a mechanical auto meter gauge. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QWKDTSN Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 If i was using a mechanical gauge i would mount it on the intake manifold to keep that line away from the headers.. however I am using an electric autometer gauge and have the sender mounted in the driver's side head. i kind of like this because it shows something closer to the actual highest temperature in the engine, being right by the combustion chambers. I think if you search this question's been answered a few times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
