Temp Sender?
What or maybe were is the correct spot for the temp sender? On my 57 Chevy I just finished a Small Block 383 Build and install. Dumb me I didn't install the sender until after I got the engine bolted down all snug and secure. The easy place was to install the sender in the drivers side head between the number 1 and 3 plugs. You all know the place I am talking about there is a big old plug there in all 350 type heads, I assumed ( there's that word) that plug was actually for a sender. Now that spot seems to me to be a Hot Spot right in the head and between those two cylinders. Got me to wondering should I have installed the sender in the manifold? Plug there as well. Is there a temp difference? Reading from the sender I have installed in the head temps seem a little high, runs at 210 to 220 will get even hotter at times and cools down when I coast down a long hill in neutral to as low as 200. Just got me to wondering is there a big difference of the temp if taken from difference places?
RSProtected people will never know or understand the intensity life can be lived at. To do that you must complettly and totally understand the meaning of the word "DUCK"
That's going to be nice, like the color. .
