They all use type K thermocouples. Most claim that noone elses can be used,
interesting...

I know the feeling.

I think that the VDO probes can be used for a very long time, probably
forever on a na engine. And the price is hard to beat.

By the way, the picture of the vdo kit on
http://www.extrememotorsports.com/g2cat/egtgauge.htm is with the slow probe,
even more rugged of course but not as useful. And the price sucks, I think
ATR wants $139 for the same kit.
