Default LT1 Rad Coolant Level Sensor Plug?

I've picked up a cheap LT1 radiator from a friend in great shape I'm planning to use in my 01 WS6 to help with some cooling issues I'm seeing with my 402. I don't have the low level coolant sensor with the radiator. I've been looking around for something to fill the hole, but thus far nothing I'm confident in with the coolant system under pressure hot.

Any suggestions?

Go to your local dealer a buy the sensor for about $17 and use that to plug the hole.

Use the sensor from your stock radiator, it's a direct swap. I recently upgraded to the LT1 radiator as well, I just had to block off the provision for the LT1 heater core hose.
