Tom, would something like this be a better option. I am assuming that this top port is the return from the heater (correct)? Or should I move it down to the lower port where I have my return from the heated intake?

Am I correct in assuming it is best to pick up the water temp. from a location as close to the top of the head as possible?

Because I also thought about picking up the water temp here at the supply for the intake but seems like the metering block would be alot of weight hanging on such a small fitting coming out of the block. I guess I could make some kind of support bracket and mount it to the bell housing bolts.
