Don't be a hack and do the cut and splice thing. Replace the sensors with the ones from the blown engine. Do it right or don't do it at all.

BB is 100% correct.
If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right.

Why create issues by trying to patch things together . Swapping a few sensors is much less time and labor .
