<VV> Thermister Swap?

[Matt Nall]

Rochester 3080-38  TEMPERATURE PROBE 
referenced from a FlyCorvair.com article on head temps.  In the aircraft 
catalog mentioned in the article their  Rochester thermister/temp probe has a 
temp rating from 250F - 550F  degrees, and it has 3/8 24 thread size, the same 
as the one I recovered from my  Spyder. Also, it appears DC because it is 
used in light aircraft  perhaps Corvair powered too. Cost of the new Rochester 
temperature  probe is $80.  
 
Question: Will this thermister work in my Spyder, is it compatible  with 
the factory gauge and CHT opening on the head?
 
(I do not have the measurements of the Rochester temp probe but it looks  
very close to our AC unit from the picture in the catalog)

Very unlikely it's a thermister..    which works backwards  from a resistance  probe.
