· There is a direct replacement for a temp sending unit that fits the vortec heads, that works perfect with the factory temp gauge. I wrote about it a couple of years ago on a post. Seach for it, as at one time I posted the information. Jan 4, 2010 #7.
· Swapping L31 vortec heads onto my engine and the temp sender is smaller on the new heads so I can't reuse mine. The new style (the ones that would have come with the heads) have a different connector and I also don't know what the voltage output of my current setup is (the 99 vortec setup puts out between 0 and 5 volts). Anyone run into this problem, can I just splice in a new style …

· Newer heads have a 3/8 npt port but most 2nd gen heads had a 1/2 npt port for the temp sensor. This problem has been posted numerous times with different sensors or adapters suggested for those wanting to retain the factory gauge. I tried one of these suggested senders but it read too hot. Well, today I found out that 1981 z28's with the 350 engine switched to a 3/8 npt sender. So all you have ...
· Thermostats open and close during engine operation based on temperature. In the Vortec engine, temperatures in the heads may swing wildly and out of control absent a bypass. The internal bypass in the older blocks is only on one side because that is often all you need to let the water move. In short, radical temperature swings are managed by adding a bypass to the front of the intake. Other ...
· 97 Vortec 350, 510" comp roller, mildly ported heads. I plan on nitrous in the near future and need to know what plug to run. The vortecs take a deep plug that has the extra threads on it. So I want to run a temp range that equals an AC43 or AC44. What plug number do I need? I …
· the vortec head has a 3/8 pipe thread for the temp sender- the same as any mid 80's and newer small block. the old heads were 1/2 inch, i believe. when i did mine, i bought a bag of adapters at NAPA that had like 5 different adapters, all for 3 bucks, i think.---- …
· This is something I went through very recently. I have a 383 stroker with AFR aluminum heads. I put the temp sensor in the head. On a cool 50 or 60 degree day, the temp gauge would climb up to 240 degrees and it made me very nervous. I called my engine builder and told him it was running hot. He told me to think about how water circulated through the motor. The water pump pulls water out …
Reading the temperature with the Arduino is a very useful task. There are a wide variety of temperature sensors with different features that you can use in your projects. In this article, we’ve put together a compilation of 9 affordable temperature sensors compatible with the Arduino and other development boards (like ESP32 or ESP8266). 1. DHT11.
· Engine coolant temperature sensor removal and installation Remove the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor from the left cylinder head. To Install: Apply thread sealer P/N 12346004 or equivalent to the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor threads. Install the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor into the left cylinder head.

· I have noticed the engine temperature gauge is not working. Needle is off the gauge as if not powered up, in the dead cold position. The truck does blow warm air, so I know the gauge is not indicating true temperature. What is the best way to isolate the problem. I'm sure it is either gauge/harness or sensor. Its difficult to spend much time with it, as he has a laundry list of things for …
· What all have you dont about the temp sensor w/newer style heads? The temp sensor diameter for my 78Z is too large for the Vortec heads.
· Hey vortec dudes. What do you use for your coolant temp sensor sending unit location with a manual guage? I have a 99 vortec in a 72 fj40 and the vortec motor only has 1 coolant temp location. there is another one on the left head but it is too close to the headers and is thrown off by their...
· Is this port (illustrated with green arrow) where I'm supposed to run a temperature sender for Vortec heads? These are '062 heads I think. My old sensor from '882 heads doesn't seem to fit the new heads... I'm not sure what brand gauges I have, but they utilize mechanical senders.
· Wenn der Sensor nicht erkannt wird kann sie ihren großen Vorteil des Temp. Regelns nicht ausführen. Das heißt sie wird ständig laufen wie eine einfache Pumpe.
