Mechanical Water Temp

The top hose will read the water temp coming out of the radiator. The lower hose will read the temp after cooling down in the radiator. I would stick with the top hose...

I have a water temp sensor for my ecu on the water pump location.
I allready put it all together and dont want to take it apart, hence the little autometer part 2283 and the hose question

Most accurate would be in the wp housing before the thermostat. It would also work on the upper hose but you would have to wait for the thermostat to open up to get an accurate reading. I originally had mine on the upper hose and decided to move it to the wp housing. I'm using mine for a cold start operation on a stand alone.

A small amout of coolant does get past the thermostat even before it opens (through the jiggle pin), so the neck (like Ray's) should be a decent place to put it. If you are no longer running the stock choke, then putting the sender where the stock thermoswitch was would be a good option.
