Keeping track
After putting some miles on my rig with this mod it becomes very apparent how effective the temp gauge is now in monitoring how hard engine is working & cooling system health. With original gauge design, I was blissfully naive about how stable my engine temps were. I highly recommend this mod to all 80 owners with the 1FZ-FE engine. I can imagine how valuable it is for this engine with a SC setup. With the aluminum head on the cast iron block, I consider it indispensable for getting as much mileage as possible out of your HG, original or not. Just my .02 - YMMV
