Re: 54 Packard ignition switch / cylinder head temp gauge

Thank you for responding BigKev and Howard. My original water temp gauge and sender work fine and will remain the same. The Faria temp sender just mounts flat on top of the head. Ideally , because the of the aluminum head, I wanted to monitor it's temp. The Faria gauge is fairly inexpensive but only goes to 120 F degrees so I'm probably spinning wheels. Classic Instruments does sell a vintage cylinder head temp gauge with a microprocessor and is very expensive. Neither actually say they are 12 volt. But the lights are LED. I was not going to connect the lights. The Classic looks like the 14mm thermocouple sender goes around one of the spark plugs?
