I am doing a swap in a 76 C10 and am looking for an alternative to drilling and tapping the thread. Does anyone know of a Coolant Temp sensor that will screw into the LS head and work the factory one wire 76 truck guage?

This one will work, off a 98 camaro z28, has to be the 3 prong

The 3rd small prong just goes to your guage wire

I just clipped the other two wires off the connector, you will need one of them too

I drilled and tapped the drivers side block plug for 1/2" NPT.
Problem with the 98 sensor is it might not match the gauge.

Depends on your idea of "works", some will make a needle move, but they usually are not very acurate.Drillling and tapping the head for the correct sensor for the gauge works best in my opinion.

I have a Dakota Digital temp sensor that I bought extra for my gauges, ended up not needing it. Brand new. PM if you are interested.

Its 12mm so it will screw right in.
