As others have suggested, you don't necessarily have to put the  thermocouple 
under the plug.  Seth's suggestion to attach it to the stock  sensor's 
location is excellent.  I don't see any reason why you couldn't  have two sensors 
and a switch and the thermocouples are really inexpensive;  under $15 each.

<snip>The either / or use of the washer or thermocouple makes  sense.  Now my 
concern is how robust is the setup.  If you (or someone  who doesn't know to 
be gentle) cranks on the sparkplug while tightening it, can  damage be done to 
the thermocouple.  Also, what if the "tiny leads" get  damaged?  How 
expensive is a replacement?

I would also like to know  if the gauge can be adapted to be installed in the 
standard spot on the dash pod  or must it be mounted elsewhere?  Lastly, can 
I assume that two  thermocouples can come into the gauge through the use of a 
switch. Doc  <unsnip>
