On my Tiger 2 - 289 the temp sender is located on the manifold coolant
runner to the left side (driver's side) head directly behind the
distributor. The sender is a big one (same thread size as the heater hose).
When I installed the performer manifold the sender location moved closer to
the head on the same runner, was smaller than the heater hose fitting.
The 260 manifold may have been different.
