1/2" NPT sized oem gauge sender
Anyone know of a 1/2" NPT sized coolant temperature gauge sender that is calibrated like stock? I have tried a few and none have been accurate.
Yes I know I can use a pipe adapter and reuse the stock 3/8" sender, but I'd rather not as they look sloppy and will make my clearance between sender and header pretty tight.
Thanks,
John

They make threaded adapters that are flush type, they dont have the large hex a standard buhsing has. I used one for my temp sender. I'll get a pic and see if I can remember where I bought it from. Its an option.

Excellent. Got the part in. Looks very clean. Thanks for the suggestion 86. It will be excellent to have a proper gauge again.
