changing location temp sending unit

[wannabeMJ]

some of you know that I did the 4.0L swap in my 86 comanche

now I just received my thermostat housing with the temp unit hole so I wanna relocate it from the back of the block

to eventualy run an electrical fan setup

 

Q's : can I reuse the same temp unit form the block ?

if so what do I use to plug that hole? ( just a cut bolt?)

 

if not Ive read that after market sending unit are not the best ........ go with a mopar one?

 

 

comment and input plz!!!!!

Use the same sending unit. If you get a after market unit you may have to get a matching sending unit. Read the instructions.

A bolt would work but a brass plug would be better.

Stewart Warner makes the best after market gauges in the country. Don't get that chintzy dime store stuff.
