The only ones that orginally had a temperature gage were the ones set up for distillate (kerosine) fuel. The gage was so you knew when the engine was hot enough to run on the distillate. The temperature was controlled with radiator shutters to restrict air flow through the radiator. The gage on those that had one was in the lower elbow. The gage won't tell you much on a thermosyphon system that has no shutters. If the system is clean and operating correctly, the lower elbow will always be cool. If it gets hot at all, there is a restriction in the system and maintenance is needed. I'd forget the gage instead have the radiator cleaned and flush out the water passages in the block.
