Might be a dumb question, but want to make sure. Currently, there are 2 heater hose, one goes to the water pump and the other goes to the intake right next to the thermostat. Since i have an electric fan now, i want to mount my sensor right next to the thermostat where one of the heater hose goes. I know that at the back of the intake, there is another hose thats currently plugged, that is for water. Can i move the return hose from the heater to the back of the intake, would that be ok? Or would i have some cooling problems. I'll try to attach some pics.
 
Normaly the return hose would return to where the sensor is right now in the pic, correct? Engine has been out for awhile so i don't remember for sure.

And now i would like to move that return hose to the back of the intake. If you look at the pic, its the open hole. Would this be ok?
