That makes sense now. I was wondering how that would work with only one sensor.

Thanks for your help behlinla. It had me confused bad, but after looking at that tiny space vs its 03 location- total upgrade.

Well the Tstat bolt broke and the attempt to extract it went about as good as the attempt to take it off. This is the Lower intake manifold correct? Where would I find a new one for a good project? One buddy says junkyard and tap it for 8mm bolts instead of stock 6mm.

Yes, lower intake manifold. Yes you can probably pull one off another car at the junkyard.
