Well as much as I hate to do it, I think I'm gonna do it. I thought I had my 1990's cooling system flawless after 5-90 showed me the trick of drilling the holes at 12 and 6 in the thermostat. Today I noticed coolant leaking and sure enough after I just replaced all my heater hose plumbing with the expensive moulded ones, my coolant bottle cracked, AGAIN. I just put on a reinforced one like a year ago and its already cracked. So...I've read like 4 write ups(because I'm a good boy and searched) but I never really got too clear of an answer on this one thing. What do you do about the electric fan? I know if you order one of the GDI ones now they have the hole so you can adapt the sensor in but if I decide to go with something besides GDI can I just upgrade to the newer style T-Stat housing and redo the sensor into that? Will the threads be the same and will it reach far enough into the hole to read the temp? It looked like on this article...

he talked about plumbing it in but I wasn't sure I understood it right. Can anyone clarify this for me?
Thanks guys,
