AutoMeter Temp Probe Location.

Chrome_Rust · September 25th, 2009, 10:39 AM

I am at the point where i am getting ready to install the engine in my 93. I have only 1 question. Because of where and how I located my gauges I now have to extend my oil line, not a big deal. The temp probe will not reach the front of the engine with out a little stretching (Both are autometer sport comp ultralights). I have a Trick Flow Track Heat intake and there is the spot on the rear, passenger side that the probe will thread into. So to finally get to the question, can I install the probe there and get an accurate reading? I was wondering as there isn't water passing that point like there is on the front on the intake. thanks!

It won't reach with out stretching a little. I like having everything working also.... Plus I have a 2001 GT Dash (it's done...) and 95GT cluster in the car, so I'd like to have all that working.
