The original sender on the Chev was a mechanical bulb into the block connected to the instrument panel..... all in one piece.

On the Ford block I am not sure if it was electrical or mechanical.

You may be lucky by pure coincidence to find compatible parts but you might be better buying a lotery tickets....better odds.

If you are concerned with getting an accurate reading to prevent overheating the block I would suggest an after market generic gauge/sender unit available at Canadian Tire or Princess Auto...... not original but they do work .........

lol...Bob !! i knew i would get that sort of reply....
i am electronic engineer for the automotive market...believe me i will make it fit, its just a matter of thread/fittings onto the block. i dont care what engine i have for now.
i just need the one that fits electricaly on the guage itself of the ford cab/metter assembly and i will be happy.
