I have no relation to seller but I just purchased one of these. The vendor has 4 left. They are westach gauges and include a thermocouple. He is selling them for a buy it now of $30. These retail for $57.

Good price, but becareful...the high range is "375"...even at 350 you will be running with the needle almost all the way to the right.

25-375 Celsius so 350F = 176C on this gauge.

Probably should have pointed out that these were metric scale. The only concern I have is will the sensor reach from the engine to the dash. I have heard you can not lengthen thrmocouple leads.

According to the installation instruction I received with my Westach CHT, you can add 20 gauge wire to lengthen the sensor. That's what I did and it works fine. Just don't cut the sensor wire.
