340 Six Pack with Electric Fans

[msarni1]

Hey guys I need some help.
I have a 340 Six Pack which I installed 2 electric fans.
The problem is that the intake manifold had 2 ports one for the heater and one for the temp sensor.
I have no place to put the Thermo Switch.......

Anyone have any suggestions.

Thanks
Mike

How about using a short plumbing tee on the temp sensor port? Should be able to get one at Home Depot in brass.

I tried that but dont think the thermostat is getting hot enough it sits 2" above manifold

Here is what the previous owner did to run a temp gauge with the factory 340 spreadbore manifold
