Re: temp sensor machining

I used one of these.
https://www.amazon.com/Engine-Adapte.../dp/B015NG418C
Seems it would change the calibration because it extends out so far.
I have not had any issues with mine.
Others use the LS part and connect it to the original system.
Maybe someone can find the link as I had no luck.
Cheers

I had one of those on my LS3. It did not work real well. After driving for a bit, the adapter would heat up and I think the sensor was picking up that temperature instead of the coolant.
