EGT gauge (was: Re: Ignition retard knock sensor.)

[Todd....!!]

Question for anyone who knows,

WHERE would be the best place to install one of these EGT setups on the
engine itself?  Where in the exhaust system?

I have a v-8 or two one with headers one with just exhaust manifolds
whcih I'd like to throw an EGT on!

Do I need one per cylinder or is that overkill?

I'm sure one per cylinder would be optimum, but what are the other
options?

Thanks!
