checked around but does anyone know how to install the defi water temp gauge on the SR? Apparently in the instructions it says that i need to connect it to the top radiator hose and cut the hose in half and place a sensor attachment (T shape). Well i dont kno where to get the sensor attachment cuz i checked around and no luck. How did you guys install yours? thanks!

Also where does it connect to as for the plug?

Another option is a $100 top blue radiator hose (Samco) with a bung for a water temp sending unit.

No, I meant the Blitz. :)
They're probably the same thing.

I just realized the Samco doesn't have a bung.

Go to a hardware store, get a 1/8 PT or NPT (i forget which the defi probe is) tap and proper drill bit, and drill/tap a hole in the water outlet (the piece off the drivers front of the block that goes to the upper rad hose).
