Guy, I think the Roadster pre-dates the manufactures instructions by
several decades.
I would treat it like an O2 sensor and mount it at the closest point
to the engine headers where all 4 cylinders can be monitored i.e. the
collector pipe.
I can't see the point in restricting the sensor to less than the full
tote of exhaust gasses.

Subject: Installation of Exhaust Gas Temperature Gauge.
Greetings,
I am installing an exhaust gas temperature gauge into my 67.5 stroked
1600. This involves drilling a 3/16" hole in my header to enstall a
clamp style thermocouple that inserts into and clamps around the
drilled
hole. My question is....the gauge manufacturer states I should
install
the thermocouple into the "leanest cylinder as defined by the engine
manufacturer". I don't have a clue. I suspect that with cylinder
#1
being closest to the water pump and #4 being closest to the fire wall
that # 4 would be the leanest. That is my guess. Oh, I also have a
solex set up on this puppy. As always, any suggestions will be
appreciated.
