Hello,
Can someone please recommend to me where I can install a temperature gauge on my 10/1?
Thanks,
Jim
Since I also have a 10/1 and faced that same problem, Jim, here is my solution which follows the good advice you can find here on our forum. First, I had to open the the head casting a small bit to allow the use of 190F NAPA thermostat that now features a small hole ( mine is 3/32) for bypass cooling to keep the hot side temperature constant rather than allowing the thermostat to continually cycle.
Next, I use a short nipple then a T with the up side holding a bushing then a McMaster- Carr gauge. My system feeds via SS flex hose ( unnecessary and $$$) up to a heat exchanger then the outlet side of EX features a T from the NAPA plastic header tank then down to the inlet side T with another gage then into the engine.
My SS heat ex is from E-buy and is mounted to a wall. The raw water cooling loop that feeds to the EX has both a rain water filled tank with drain for freezing wx, radiator with fan and a pump-all are for Hot Lanta in the summer and are, admittedly over engineered.
If you need more advice or part numbers let me know-glad to help,
Cordially, overbore
