Where do you measure water temperature on an ARDUN engine?

The ARDUN conversion has no place for a water temperature sensor. Steve says other people put a small metal piece in the hose with a clamp and fit the sensor there. For the dyno he wanted the average temperature, so the fabricated outlet header carries the sensor. Its connection is an inch and a half; the neck on the head is only an inch and a quarter, so he uses rubber adapters.
