Where is the most accurate place to put aftermarket temp sensor? I have had mine in the cross over burp cap for a while now and never had problems intill I moved to Arizona! My gauge got up to 247 today while driving down the road. And of course the stock gauge reads normal. Just worried me cause I know the cross tube is not the hottest spot. And to see it get that high is scary.

Maybe the sensor is faulty? Seems weird that it would get that high.
Around 200* both gauges will read about the same but as soon as the engine temps go higher the sensor in the block will show a higher temp.
So which location would show the truer reading? I thought the block would be best, so located there very close to the exhaust manifold. Speed hut guage hit 250* as I exited the track and hasn't worked since. When i went to unplug it at the sensor, the plastic plug crumbled in my hand. I was going to relocate the sensor to the crossover tube Good idea?
Also reset the alarm from 240* down to 230*
Also reset the alarm from 240* down to 230*
mine is at the block as well it gives very accurate reading at cruising speed but when racing it does jump a bit high but no higher than 210*
