OK guys...did a complete PI engine with a 2000gt engine in a 98gt...we have about everything bolted up and plugged in except the coolant sender for the guage...what do you do with it...how do you use it...and the 2000 engine has one where the 98 didnt. Let me know..all we gotta do is get an 8 bolt flywheel....button everything back up and we are done. Thanks i hope someone can help.

On my car they just tapped right into the t-stat housing. The gauge works fine.

yep, just tap right next to the thermostat housing, has worked fine in mine so far.

you have an all plastic intake? this guy swapped a 2000 engine in...they have the all plastic PI intake and I haven't seen anyone tap that yet. If you do and you did....please let us know how. I know a few people with this problem. Thanks
