I believe there is a 3/8npt or larger plug on the crossover tube. It's near to the thermostat so it would be a decent choice.

There is a plug in the block on the drivers side near the exahust manifold. You can get an adapter to fit that plug hole and a 1/8" NPT temp probe.

Here's a link to a thread with more info:
