Hello all I have been working on a friend's 1990 chevy truck 5.7. He wanted to change the intake gaskets so he found a good used intake so I put it on and I didn't see that the coolant temp sensor hole near the thermostate has been plugged with a pipe fitting... I tried heating it really hot and taking it out it won't move and it's starting to strip. My question is can I put the coolant temp sensor in the thermostate housing? There's a hole and I have the right pipe fitting adapter
