However, if you use a compact T like the one I pictured above and plug the opposite pass through opening with a temp probe, you effectively have an elbow and it should perform like any other elbow... not like a T with a dead-end path.
Thanks for the suggestion and I do have those DD blocks. Unfortunately, the temp probe seems to push pretty deep inside. I guess the dilemma is which is worse, a partially blocked elbow or a dead end T/elbow. I'd test but then again, I'm really getting sick and tired of building/rebuilding my Horizon. o.0 I just want to find a way to be happy about it and then get started on my Bob Slay project. After 3 personal UFO builds, I'm anxious to get away from those cases.

But anyhow, enough of me whining, I'll just sit back and see if I can find another place to throw the temp probe in and go with this route as a last resort. I can't believe I talked myself into doubling my water temp probes to 6 to measure water in and water out of the radiator.
