Default Information Needed On Replacement Water Temperature Gage

I have decided that my original water temperture gage is faulty and showing my 302 Gt to be running hotter than it really is. It is not running hot. I would like suggestions on what type of water temperature gage I should get. I would definitley want to know the proper water temperaturejust in case that it does run hot some day.

Are there mounting kits that look nice and would mount in a handy place. As you know there is not many places to mount an additional gage.

An autometer would be pretty good.

That replaces the stock clock.

Fits over the Instrument Cluster.

They also make a Pillar mount in 1-3 gauges.

They are very accurate and very good.

Also I would like to know which gage type, electrical or mechanical, I should use.

Electrical is what I'd use.
