Sending Unit Questions

Hi All,

Well, my gauges get here tomorrow, so I'll be wrenching for the next few days installing them.

I have spent a bunch of time searching about this, and am solid on vacuum, trans temp and oil pressure sending unit locations. My question is about he water temp sending unit.

The stock unit is on the intake, right in front of the throttle body. It looks like it would be easy enough to tap/tee into, is this going to be the best place for the sending unit, or is the port on the drivers side block forward better?
