I replaced my intake manifold on my '66 Barracuda with an air gap type. Previously, I had 3 tempurature sensor ports, each with a sensor - one for the dash gauge, one for an aftermarket gauge, and one for the electric fans. The new manifold only has two ports for sensors. Can I safely connect two of my 3 required connections to one sensor without creating any false readings? Has anyone else run into the same situation?
 
Absolutely not. Some of those intakes can be easily drilled and tapped for additional sensors. "If ya have ta" sometimes you can put a tee in the heater connection.

Also, various aftermarket outfits makes things like thermostat housing risers with tappings, and there exist (somewhere) water outlets with a tapping right in the outlet.
