OK, first off these cars develop air pockets in the cooling system like it's their job so I'd suggest doing a cooling system purge first (lots of threads about this around here) and retesting. Also, instead of rebuilding it's usually cheaper and easier now to use salvage engines. Car-part.com...

Generally considered, you place the temp sensor as close to the thermostat as possible as that's where the coolant should be hottest. The car probably doesn't have a spot to use so you'll want something like an Autometer Radiator Hose adapter 2283, or similar.
