Thanks to input from Tracy, Marc and Dave I've been able to label most
of
my
connectors.

What do you mean by "a fitting"? A pipe connecting the two?
I plan to run a cooling fan. Wouldnt the lower sensor be good for
this?
If I plug the upper point or use it to vent the intake coolant return,
where
should I put my water temperature sensor?
Your temp gauge for water temp could use one sensor postion, and you
could use the second one for turning on the fans at a certain temp.
However, there are temp gauges that let you set a point at which the
temp gauge turns on a relay that could trigger your fans (A SPA gauge
comes to mind. Nice gauges made in England. I have a dual one for boost
psi and any temp I chose. It triggers relays at any setpoint I choose).
There are many options to accomplish what you want. You could use those
2 treaded bosses for any water temp/pressure item! Use 1 of them for
water pressure.
