Default LS1 Supercharged Threaded IAT?

I'm running a Vortech 2 centri blower on my LS1 (it's a Holden Commodore from Oz - same basic setup as an LS1 Pontiac GTO). The IAT is fitted to the intake pipe after the intercooler - quite close the the TB. It's held in by a rubber grommet which has split. In an ideal world, I'd like to fit this using a more secure method and use a threaded IAT. Does anyone know of a threaded IAT with the stock harness connector and stock characteristics? I don't really want to change my tune just for this so a like for like replacement would be just perfect.

TIA.

Syclone/Typhoon IAT sensor is threaded and plugs directly to existing harness.

Dumb question...do you weld that provision on to your charge pipe? I wouldn't feel comfortable using a nut on the inside of the pipe and risk it going into the engine.

Edit...nevermind...upon further reading looks like a 3/8" npt fitting is what I need.

Yep, get a weld-on bung and weld it into your charge pipe.

The thread size is 3/8 NPT. If your charge pipe is steel you can hack up a 3/8 pipe couple for a bung.

I just threaded and tapped into the charge pipe before the tb on my kit. I used an Orileys IAT sens that changed over from one of these two part #'s Gm 25036751 or Wells SU127.
