Anyone seen one like this? I wanted to install it in the TB coolant hose line, but its kinda too long for middle of the Brass T I was planning to use. It's from a mechanical gauge, and the sensor is about 2 inches (after the threading).

Any ideas?

Get the appropriate sized fitting from a hose shop and tap it into the coolant filler neck.

From what I read it's a lot better to get it in the TB hose, so I'm trying to stay away from the filler neck...

Nothing wrong with the filler neck. There's plenty of room there plus lots of metal for the tap to make threads.

on the passenger sied their is a hex plug you can remove. with the right adapter set up from the Depot should go right on. alot of people actually remove the TB collant stuff. go with the neck.
