Default aftermarket electric water temp gauge users

Where did you put the sender? Are you running the stock gauge along with it. I am guessing I need a different sender than what came with my gauges (metric probally). thanks

You have to use your stock sender and gauge.Just get a metric adaptor for the autometer sender and put it above the starter on the block(there's a plug or freeze plug there)

Or email Cory at Autometer cory_villani@autometer.com

He'll hook you up with an adaptor and smaller sender for our heads on a ls1.
It's like $18 shipped
Then just pull the plug out of the passengerside head by the the #8 spark plug and put it there.

Either way you still have to keep your stock sender and gauge on the car.

The adaptor size for the head is M12x1.5 to 1/8

Hope that helped

I put mine in the block just above the starter. You will need an M16x1.5 adapter avaliable from Jegs, Summit, or Egauges.
