I'm just in the process of installing the senders for my new gauges.
I've managed to squeeze the new oil temp sender in at the back to the left of the Distributor in it's original location.

Where's the optimum position for the water temp sender?
I have a couple of options.
#1 on the intake manifold near the thermostat housing.
#2 the left hand head (Drivers side) just below the header.

Does it really matter where?

Opinions please.......
