I'm using a gauge I got from George that fits correctly with a 60mm core, but it doesn't have a scale. I was thinking I'd get a meat thermometer with a long cord and dropping it down the oil tank. If I did it before and after a drive, I could kind of calibrate the gauge My concern is that the tank temperature would be significantly different than the case.

You can get a non contact infrared thermometer pretty cheap these days, it comes in handy for a lot of stuff
