The sender for my oil pressure gauge is pretty big. I opted to 90* it out to clear the distributor. Not the prettiest solution...but it'll do.

Now lets change the subject to water temp senders.

I can see three choices where I can put it.
1. In the manifold, the only available spot is right under the tstat housing. so clearance is an issue.
2. Waterpump housing, my spot of choice.
3. in the head between the spark plugs. I stuck a 3/8 extension into this one and it is in good and tight.

Any problem with running the temp straight from the water pump?
