I thought i saw here somewhere, where is the best place to drill for the sender for my 02 24 valve stock exhaust manifold. Can some one please help me out.

As in the pyrometer? A lot of guys put it right before the turbo/manifold flange, where the manifold reduced to just 2 ports. Get it centered on the rear or foremost port. Thinking the back one is better since #6 would get hotter from a few things.

Here is a pic Mike just posted on another thread, hope he doesn't mind, lot better pic of where to put it than any I got.

Actually, same pic and article is here: http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/personal/2002/gauges/gauges.htm

Scroll down and you will see it.

thanks for the reply. i see a found a few other that were drilled on the same (runner) but closer to the head. where is it thicker, or is it same to the flange?

I'd say anywhere around the flange, doesn't really matter how far you go towards the head as long as it's good and centered in the port. I think mine is a little closer but I really don't recall ever seeing anyones manifold cracking from the pyro probe.

Nor have I heard of any tales of a Pyro probe wiping out a turbo...

I drilled mine right into the center, no problems.
