7.3 build info

[typefour]

Hello diesel stop.

I am building a 7.3 with an ats turbo kit and was wondering if the threaded hole in the turbo mtg flange was a good spot for the pyro. I am a career mechanic, lots of diesel experience but not in this area.
The ats instructions say to put it in the pipe on one side but I think the other would be more accurate.
Any info would be appreciated
Also I could use a used cooler set of housings the guy I got the core engine from cracked them both. It is a 90 7.3 pickup engine. the van housings I have wont fit the chassis
thanks

yes you can put the probe on the turbo. it wont as accurate as puttin behind the exhaust manifold. at turbo you shouldn't exceed 900-100* for long. and at the manifold 1050-1200 shouldn't be exceeded. the pistons are aluminum and melt at 1225*................Gibson
