I've been seeing a temperature mismatch of about 20 degrees between my temp gauge and an actual thermocouple reading through the dipstick tube. Seems like the 911 temp gauge/sender mismatch is pretty common from what I've been reading. I've been using the standard 914 sender.
My gauge is a combination of various elements and therefore the actual whole gauge number cannot be used as a reference. Am I to understand that the temperature module was built in November 1980 as per the picture below?

I found this chart either here or Pelican.

If my temp gauge was build in late 80, then I need to get a 911 606 112 sender.

Will this fit in the standard taco plate or is it too long?
I've been seing a lot of comments about late temp gauges being numberless which makes me wonder if I actually do have a 1980-81 gauge...
