Temp Sensor, Passenger Side Head
#1
![Default](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I'm wondering about drilling & tapping the 12mm hole on the passenger side head for my 3/8NPT temp sensor to work for my Jeep gauges. The engine is out but it's very low KM so I don't want to pull the head to do it. Is it possible to do this without getting shavings in there? As it is now I have 3 fittings to make it work on my 5.3l but it reads way out.

That's how I did mine, worked out great.
