I know (or at least am pretty sure) the water temp guage in the 99 and later F-bodys is really more of an idiot light than a gauge. Is there any way to change that, by swapping the sensor? If not, where is a good place to pick up water temp with an aftermarket gauge? I haven't really given a good look yet, but though someone might know. As the motor comes out as a result of a rocker arm failing I am figure now is a good time to make any and all upgrades. I really would like to have an accurate water temp guage for the coming autocross season and maybe an oil temp guage as well?

Thanks
Chris
