In this photo, the big black tube is the air intake, but right above the IMA there's a black hose coming down. I'm pretty sure that's the hose from the water distributor to the radiator because on the car that one goes to the top of the rad and well gravity means rad intake is on top of the rad usually.

I was thinking of tapping that thing there, what I'm calling the distributor, somewhere near where that rad hose is.

My thermometer probe looks like this but smaller. Maybe 6mm diameter and 15-20mm length.

Do y'all think that if I use the insulation trick it will be good enough for me to make sure I don't overheat?
