Temp gauges
 

Does anyone have oil or tranny temp gauges in their cars right now.

Re: Temp gauges
 

I got a trans temp 8)

What did you want to know?

I have a autometer gauge mounted in the center console, using a mounting plate made by Campro designed. The sendor screws into my oil pan ( canton pan ). Oil temp is 190+ in traffic, down to 170-180 when moving.

Does that help?

I was woundering were you guys had your sendors located so i know i wont have any clearance problems.

Mine is actually mounted on a port on the side of the trans and not the pan. No clearance probs for me.

what do you mean by a port?

it's hard to explain. it had a screw in port that the guy that had the trans before me used for his guage, and I used the same one. Kinda like a screw in freeze plug port.

wounder if my 700r4 has one.

do you know the part number of your canton pan?

Not sure, they have allot of different pans based on application and oil pump. I got the pan for the LT1 F-body for racing, 7 quart pan for the HD melling oil pump.

You can check their web site

They are not cheap, but these wasn't allot of others out there. It was over $250.

Is this pan on a daily driven street car?

Thats a great idea I found one on my its right above where the shifter linkage mounts onto. No more having to drill a hole in the pan, now i just have to figure out my oil temp, not shure if i want to go with the canton pan or not.
