Default May have found a source for accurate temp sending units

I bought a corvette fever recently and found an add from Lectric Limited who advertised their sending units are accurate for our older cars. I bought one from them for 19 bucks, so we will see how it does. I know there were a few of us looking for a correct reaing temp sending unit so I thought I would give the heads up. their website is www.lectriclimited.com

I had one of theirs before I put in my Autometer gauges. Their sender worked fine.

No unfortunately. I called them yesterday to try and find a temp sensor for my ZZ4. No love. As far as I know we're resigned to using the manifold ports (10-15 deg cooler).
