The temp sensor/sender is located either in the head front or rear (drivers side) like Whitelightning mentioned or they can be in the thermostat housing smile

I have a 56'-59' 235. Mine is located on the driver's side 'block', not head 3/4 of the way back from front (towards driver) directly below the throttle linkage. It is then flex-tubed (metal) up through the firewall and into the guage cluster.

Rattletrap52,,, is there a place for the temp sender on the head?
It should go in the head as the lower part of the block will not have an accurate reading.
Do you have a picture of the one you have?

Rattletrap52', I think what you are looking at is the oil pressure guage tube.

Yup, the temp sensor was on the top rear driver side. The one down low with the metal tubing is for oil pressure.

Thanks!
