- A bit different I would think: usually the cylinder head temp gauges are
- used on air-cooled engines (being that you can't have a coolant temp gauge)
- and so its reading takes into account the cooling that your engine is
- getting. I think the exhaust manifold temp would be higher and less sensitive
- to air cooling effects (especially on a turbo or supercharged engine).
