Dumb Fuel Injection conversion question!

I'm gathering all the parts I need to begin my F.I. conversion. Is this the correct engine temp sensor I need for my ECU? Computer will be a Haltech, which is basicly the same as Megasquirt. Thanks!

Haltech uses a sensor that has a temperature/resistance curve the same as GM. If the you get a Bosch, you will need the Bosch parameters to compare with what is in the Haltech manual. The Haltech curves are fixed, so the sensor has to match.

If you have access to a salvage yard, just get one from any GM car with the connector and about 6 inches of wire. If you don't get the connector, I will send you one for the postage cost. Then tap out the boss on the water neck to a 3/8 npt thread.

A radiator shop is a good place to take a leak.

 

I have no idea what I'm doing but I know I'm really good at it.
