how much was the sensor?
Yeah the UK has an IAT sensor on the manifold so the bung is there it just needs to be tapped (thats what she said).

Yeah i want to get it because i would like to get a new IC this winter. You can use the fuel tank temp ADC input and just set the wanted values.

The sensor was $25 shipped with the pigtail. High five! Let me know if you want the site i got it from.

they cut a circle groove in either the head or block around each combustion chamber and insert a copper or steel ring. once the head is torqued down this ring seals the head better than a standard headgasket would

Did i loose anyone?
