				Here are some pictures for those interested in pursuing an alternate  
 location for the CHT probes.

 keeping the thermocouple clear of the spark plug socket
 
 
 I ran some tests with two thermocouples in place...one in new  
 location, and the other under the spark plug....at one point 96° F  
 hotter at the "against-the-head" location, as opposed to having the  
 t'couple up in the airstream. You can't tell how high it sticks up  
 here, but it does.
