Is there anyone that can tell me where to hook up an aftermarket temperature gauge.

I have heard that the hole/plug is on the heads, but does anyone have a picture of exactly? I am pretty confused and would like to NOT pay a mechanic, is there anywhere you all can point me to show me where?

THANKS!

 

Mine is in the threaded plug on the left side of the block. There's a square-headed plug there. It's right over top a water jacket, so you get a pretty clear indicator of the temperature in the block.

 

Can i get a picture or a better description? I am really lost here and still am not sure the location of the area. :uts dunce cap back on::

 

Can't get any pictures until later tonight, so I'll attempt to describe...

Look on the side of your engine block, almost dead center. There's a square-headed bolt threaded into the block right there. Should be one on each side in the same place. They are covering a water jacket. Unscrew it, put your temp probe in there.
