Need to Relocate IAT - but need a new IAT I have a TSP 100mm MAF... but I'm running an SD tune. And with the LS3 card style MAF, I'm using the IAT built in... but it heat soaks like a SOB.
I want to relocate to the fender. What's a good IAT to run? I'll just plug the MAF housing from TSP as my intake tract was built around it. And it works fine for that. I just don't like sitting in traffic and watching my temps go 30-40 degrees over ambient or hot lapping at the track and it going even higher. As soon as I start moving, the temps drop to ambient. So the air going into the motor isn't that hot. It's just the aluminum coupler is getting hot as **** and warming up the LS3 sensor until fresh air rushes over it.
Any ideas? I found what looks like the OE IAT... the Delphi TS10072. Or going to a screw in type IAC.

Just ordered a GM 25036751. Those are the fast response screw in type IATs. I'll use it on the Intercooler Piping down the road. For now, I'll just relocate it somewhere.
The iat in the LS3/7 blade style maf im using was not compatible with the 0411 ecm I'm using, somehow it was out of range. So I'm using a ACDELCO fbody replacement further up the CAI maf trasfer, using a small harness adaptor, works well.

This thread reminded me that I've been meaning to experiment with the omega 44005 thermistor modified f-body IAT. So I tracked down the omega part and they want $16 plus $12 shipping. Then $14 for the stock sensor. So I ordered one already modified from bohnman for $56 shipped. I'm building a new cold air / ram air system for my Cutlass and I'm going to stick it in the filter coupler and the filter is going in front of the radiator.

I got the IAC last night. It's a fast response screw-in type.
I bought a 12" harness extension to mount it... but it's not really long enough to clear things. So I should have got a 24" harness (since it's like $15 from Ballenger where I got the sensor). So I'll wait until I get that one to see. But the 24" will let me mount before the radiator cleanly.
