Where does temperature sender go on Chevy small block motor?

The temperature sender on a Chevy small block motor is located on the intake manifold, near the front of the engine. It is a small, cylindrical sensor with a single wire coming out of it. The sender is screwed into the intake manifold, and it measures the temperature of the coolant that flows through the manifold. This information is then sent to the temperature gauge on the dashboard, which displays the current engine temperature.
