im kinda mixed up on where to place the sending unit for my gauge...
ive seen some cars have it in the radiator, some have an adapter in the middle of the upper radiator hose (like k swaps), some have it elsewhere.
for now, ive located it on the upper water neck, (on the head). I drilled out the bleeder valve, threaded it and screwed in the sending unit.
on the highway the OE gauge sticks around normal, my Stack gauge reads about 185 F. im assuming, thats about the same, correct? am i going to have issues with my gauge reading too cool, or too hot?
