I didn't look close today at the Edelbrock piece for the ECM, but I in no way felt compelled to mess with the factory sensor. YMMV
 
Would it be possible to just add a port to the inlet side and leave the original sensor alone? I am not sure how much room may be available. I haven't deleted the cruise pod off of mine, yet.
He said he didn't want to stack them. Which is what I did.
 
You could just drill and tap the one that comes with the system. Add a 2nd port.
 
ya but if i screw it up then delay for another . 20 bucks gets me one already done . i love to make and mod stuff but some stuff is just cheeper and faster when purchased .

and thinking of using the single one from edelbrock on the return to verify i dont have a restriction in the line being 5/16" then when done take it out and keep it in my tool box with other special tools .
 
what are you pro flo 4 guys running for engine coolant t-stat temp ?

180* or 195* ?

reason i ask is the directions say 180* t-stat and i figure thats to get a good buffer zone for the 165* switch over temp from cold to warm settings and tuning . but i just didnt want to be to far away from a specific spec . i posted this question over on the forum so we will see the they say for there kit .

I don’t know how much a difference it makes

In my mind, I figured the factory stuff used 195, and I live in a northern climate. I like the heater to work

Also it offsets the operating temperature 35 degrees from the learn point. My mind justifies that larger window as better
:screwy:
 
195 is more efficient.
When we were racing, we always ran an ice bag on the intake, and leaned the carb down to suit.

Theoretically that meant less fuel going in, more air, and a lighter charge

I feel the exact opposite applies in a street engine. Not that it needs as much feel as possible, but that it’s a much more stable charge at a slightly higher temperature, allowing the engine to better fine tune for that efficiency
 
I understood fuel atomizes better at the higher temp. So maybe not the optimum for power, but for fuel efficiency it is best.
