Default 1968 c10 307 small Block

Hey I was wandering where is the correct spot to mount a engine temp sensor on my engine and be able to hook it up to the dash. It’s a 307 small block v8.

Driver's side of the engine, typically mounted in the side of the head between plugs 1 and 3 if I remember right.
