Dual Temp Senders

[turbotim2]

Curious what you guys are doing for dual temperature senders for EFI? Thanks!

Just did this on another thread. Thanks to others telling me, I'm running the EFI sensor on the intake, and the gauge sensor by drilling and taping the thermostat housing.

Are there any other options for an Edlebrock Performer? I don't have that kind of real estate in my thermostat housing.

Pretty sure you have two locations.. one up by the thermostat housing and another close to the base of the carb.

Yes, but one is used for the heater.

2 other options are:

1) drill and tap another hole in your intake, which is what Holley told me to do %)
2) "T" housing for 2 sensors, but many people report that doesn't produce accurate readings.

Ok, thanks. I will probably drill it. Has anyone done this?

I needed a 3rd sensor location for my electric fan. (fuel inj. and gage are other 2) Welded a boss to the T-stat housing and solved the problem...

Swap the thermostat housing for one that is already tapped. You can buy them that way for about $20. Just make sure you get the correct one, explorer and v belt are not the same

Probably easier to swap housings than drill and tap.

Or spring for the actual Ford part, but it needs to be drilled and tapped.

Ok, thanks.

I'D THINK that the one for the fan could be really Simple ... As you could use a 1/8 pipe thread . Small compared to the 1/2 in pipe thread of the other sensors.
