A probe that's closer to the piston skirt will read lower. I believe the analogy is something like a welder's flame where the hottest part is at the tip of the embedded blue flame further from the tip of the torch. I've got this same problem on my 582 and would like to make sure my egt probes are exactly the right distance out on the manifold. There are all kinds of complex methods for determining this for those of us who don't have the pre-drilled manifolds. Instead, the easiest thing would be if someone with one of the factory drilled parts would just measure the distance from the edge of the exhaust flange where it mates to the manifold with the engine upright (spark plugs up) and publish it here. Anyone?
