Coolant sensor Questions

I am swapping to a Edelbrock 7101 intake manifold and the coolant sensor off the stock manifold will not fit the new manifold. Can i get a different size at the local auto parts store? If so what do i ask for?

The holes in the manifold are too big? Look for a bushing.

Any parts store. The manifold and sensor will both have pipe threads, you'll need a bushing that has the larger size on the outside and the smaller size on the inside.

Will an auto parts store carry them? I looked at auto zone and couldnt find any, but i was in a hurry and didnt look that good. Or do i need to go somewhere like Lowes?

They should, a NAPA would probably have them for sure.
