I remember someone on here posted a link to summit racing and there was a water neck for the 5.0 that allowed a NPT coolant temp sensor to screw into it. He had this set up with an electric fan. I cant locate that water neck anymore.

Anyone have any idea?

Thanks [patriot]

Just found out it's not available.

Does anyone know any other manufactures or suppliers with this water neck?

go and pick up an extra water neck from the junkyard and drill/thread it with an appropriate size NPT tap.

It's NOT illegal. It's just frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane.

hah, those links look like the exact parts list I posted up here a really long time ago.

but as mentioned, I've found that most parts store waternecks have a threaded plug in them just like that one from summit.
