just a helpful hint, i ran an analog temp gauge last year switched to a digital this year.... the needle jiggles alot, i could only get an accurate reading when i was stopped.... your install looks very nice..

a liquid filled gauge will take care of that.

Where did you guys get the temp sender housing for mounting in the hose??? thx

There are a lots of places to get them once you confirm the thread size for your particular gauge kit.

Ulmer Racing sells an inline sender adapter that fit my sender (1/8" NPT) however, it did not lend itself well to may gauge application. In my setup, I have a single wire sender that requries the adapter housing to be grounded. I found a wide selection of sender adapters with built in grounding posts on Fleabay.

The sender adapter that Ulmer sells works great with a 2-wire sender. If I had used it in my application I would have had to clamp a grounding lead to the adapter somehow.

If you end up shopping for one, buy one that has fits 26mm or 1-inch ID heater hose.
