I recently acquired a '78 CJ7 with the 258. The factory gauges are either inoperable or untrustworthy so I bought a Bosch 3-gauge set from a local parts store, only to find that the aftermarket sensor will not fit into the factory sensor port. The 3-port CTO fitting on the side of the block is not in use and one of the adapters that came with the gauge kit fits that port. Will this location provide adequate flow to the sensor to yield an accurate water temperature reading?
 
Yes it should.
