[DeTomaso] Fw: temp sending unit

[Christopher Kimball]

FWI:  I mounted a new Dakota Digital sending unit on the block--there's a place for it near the front of the engine.  The wire from that can run to a new, more accurate temp gauge, also available from Dakota Digital (about $90, I think) which could give you very accurate temperature readings.

I pulled the wire from the sending unit on the swirl tank and grounded it, it pegged the gauge. Now what sending unit do I need to put in my tank. It appears to be 3/8 npt.  I better make sure the tank is grounded, now that I write this I'm thinking of all the FORD blue I painted on that tank. I still want to know what sending unit... Thanks Bill
