I have heard that you can use a McMaster-Carr thermocouple as an EGT probe..I just can seem to tell which is most suitable? Anyone out there running one want to share which one they used? I have a gauge just not a suitable probe.

The Aircraft spruce probe is not too long, fairly quick to react and have been used in a lot of builds. I recommend them.

most EGT gauges Ive come across use 'K - Type' Thermocouples. They are identifiable by the Yellow and red Wire ends at the terminal side of the probe.
