I'll take a close up today and post but its all together.
Does it change things if you put the sender in after the you install the thermostat?

Looks like mine has a boss that moves the sender to one side of the water neck. I believe I purchased it from Hughes.
EDIT: ON SECOND THOUGHT, I MIGHT HAVE GOT IT HERE.... Thermostat spacer with EFI sensor port | AR Engineering

Nice.
Thanks Troy, I wonder if the newer TX3 sensor is bigger/smaller vs the oem style?

There is a brass fitting that is basically a spacer of sorts. I use them when the crossover isn’t deep enough and the sender his the bottom of it.
It spaces it out so it doesn’t hit the manifold. It would probably work for that too.

Just for everyone's benefit. AR Engineering AR438 is a good fix for this problem. It is a little bit pricey but bang for your buck it works great. Mancini had it in stock now I can take back the other one to Summit on my next trip there for a refund.
Thanks, that was a big help right there.
Did you need the gasket between the spacer and the intake? Mine from AR Engineering had a rubber O ring for the seal between the spacer and the intake.

I had an internet Ying- Yang tell me to put 318 heads on a 340 once...
Oh yes because it increases torque by 70-80 fr lbs easy!
I guess if it’s after the apocalypse in the world looks like Fury Road or Thunderdome and you sitting next to me Gibson scraping for scraps, I guess the 318 heads on a 340 will be OK then. But not before then!

I used a gasket instead of the Oring. I probably could have used the Oring but I have had gaskets in stock, so I used them.
