It could be made to work. there is a spare boss on the the left side of the head below the thermostat housing you could drill and tap to take it. Or I could prolly get My old man to turn you up an adapter so you could screw it into the standy temp sender hole. (If you like, I'll ask him how much to make you one?)

I dunno. I think the old man said it was actually an imperial thread. The factory sender isn't threaded though. It's held in by a special nut.

no.
The factory sender had no thread, and It's shaped in a special way.
