Default 502 MPI Temp Sensor

Hey guys, I have a 502 mpi with mefi3. I have crossover with bypass and I am curious to know what guys with this set up or with a crossover without bypass are doing to run there temp sender for gauge and temp sensor for computer. I have the temp sender in the front of the intake, but don't have a spot for the temp sensor. I heard you can put a resistor in the temp sensor plug to make the computer see a constant temp, but not sure how good of a solution that is. I would imagine anyone with a crossover and a mefi3 would have had to take care of this situations. What's the best way to handle this?

I am using this. Worked great when I was running my MPI setup. Using it again on my Holley EFI setup.

So you ran both your temp sender for your gauge, and your temp sensor for computer in the 2 outlets?

Unfortunately that spacer won't fit on mine. I only have about 1/2" of clearance between my t stat housing and fuel pressure regulator

yes I did. Oh, I had removed that Schraeder valve on the end of my fuel rail and just made a block off plate because I was pushing 62 psi to my injectors and didn't want it blowing fuel into my plenum. The fuel regulator is actually down on the pump.

Ah, I had older MEFI1 (circa 1997) unit. Much changed between yours and mine and the Cool Fuel system configuration.
