Re: Quick, Easy question (Hopefully)

I've drilled and tapped an intake manifold for the original temp sensor. The big fat tap itself wasn't cheap ($35 I think) but it wasn't rocket science. It is a tapered thread so I'd check your depth with the sensor periodically as you tap it.

That said, I have no idea if drilling into the head is a good idea. Only ever done it on an intake.
