I was woundering if anyone had relocated the engine coolant temp sensor(ECT).The sensor is kinda in the way of the new fuel lines(heater core tubes that run along the intake).I know its a computer control which sensors when the car is warm enough from regular operations.I can relocate it to the thermostat housing but then its before the stat,I also have a spot directly in the intake?

If you are not using the heater, you could mount the ECT directly in the manifold where the heater tube was connected to the manifold.
