EGT hole in 2-pc EM, Autometer probe?

[Ken Keith]

Hi List,

On the 2-piece exhaust manifold for the MC cars, there is a hole in the
exhaust manifold which needs to be plugged with p/n's N 016 153 1 and
N 013 812 B (or is that N 013 812 8? I think the B is correct.).

The archives say that this is for an EGT gauge.  Why would this be
there?  Were there any cars that came from the factory with an EGT
gauge?  Well, actually since the 2-pc EM's were supposedly
replacement only, I guess nothing would have came from the factory so
equipped.

Let's say I wanted to use that hole for that purpose.  Would the probe
that comes with the Autometer EGT gauge kit screw into this hole in
the EM?  If not, are there any adapters that are needed?

Thanks,

Ken
