Does any one know the thread size and pitch of the stock water temp sender?

I know that my auto meter is 1/8 npt. I am in the process of installing a gauge pod.

the stock unit is a 10mm with 1.0 pitch. now to find a 10mm to 1/8ntp adapter. always the little things to slow you down on the mods.

you need to tap it somwhere else.

water pump housing, radiator hose-someone sells something for this

J9fd3s found it once, Greddy I believe? Or the thermostat housing.

Unless you can find or make the metric-sae adaptor. Someone should start making this for RX-7 guys.Personally I did the thermostat housing, I had the adaptor that came with the Autometer gauge welded onto my thermostat housing, takes all of 3 minutes for a welder to do and gives you the threads you need as well.
