Some info: the extension ring needed to insert a thermostat switch (3/8 NPT is the most common) is 2.5" OD, about 1.5-1.75" ID. This would have to be machined, and I don't have access to a metal lathe.
There is a flat spot on the head right above the hot water outlet, perhaps this could be drilled and tapped?
Since this flat spot on the head is so near the coolant, another thought is to use an adjustable snap disk epoxy'd or siiliconed to the head. Graingers 4E120 has a range of 210 to 250 F, $19.40.
Any thoughts about using head temperature instead of coolant???
