Coolant Temp Sensors
I have a 70 C10 with the 250. I have two coolant sensors I believe. One in the thermostat housing and one on the driver side of the head. Is this stock? What do they each do?

Re: Coolant Temp Sensors
My '68 has a '70 or so 307. Thermostat sensor is one peg, the one in the head has two flat prongs. I was wondering about this.

Re: Coolant Temp Sensors
Peg would be a sender for a gauge. Blade style connector should be for a light.
