I believe you need Autometer PN 2272, and you're not going to find it at the hardware store. Order it online. What size thread is the Autometer sending unit, and what do the instructions say?

I checked out that part its for a mechanical gauge. Im wanting to keep the stock sender and add the sender for the electric gauge. Read somewhere i could do it with a tee and some other fittings, but i cant find the post now

My gauge came with the correct fitting in the box.

What thread is the sending unit on the electrical gauge? You may be able to simply drill/tap the water neck and install it there. No crazy tee fittings and weird plumbing necessary. Alternatively, if there's an open port in the lower intake manifold somewhere, you can do that as well.
