Here are some pictures for those interested in pursuing an alternate
location for the CHT probes.

keeping the thermocouple clear of the spark plug socket


I ran some tests with two thermocouples in place...one in new
location, and the other under the spark plug....at one point 96° F
hotter at the "against-the-head" location, as opposed to having the
t'couple up in the airstream. You can't tell how high it sticks up
here, but it does.
