Re: WT-260 Sun Blue Line H2O temp Sender
There is a fellow selling them on eBay for $139.00. Trades as "Corvette Instrument Co." I think. That isn't his eBay "handle", but the name of his company. Seems pricey, and I feel your pain as I bought two of them. I haven't installed everything yet, but I gotta think they'll work as the guy has a business rebuilding Corvette gauges and had great feedback. I have one saved in my watch list if you can't find the listing.

Re: WT-260 Sun Blue Line H2O temp Sender
Unfortunately, the old Sun gauges only work with Sun sending units (unless something has changed.?) I put vintage Sun's in my car 7-8 years ago and the sender was pricey then.

Re: WT-260 Sun Blue Line H2O temp Sender
Research tells me there are 3 possible senders, wts125 (1/8npt), wts375 (3/8), wts500 (1/2).

It will all come down to where you want to put the sender and do you have the adapters for other places to put it. I have mine in the head on the passenger side and works well. Mine is WTS 500 with no adapter. These are what you need for the Sun Water temp gauge... Dave 67 Nova Boy
