EGTs are usually monitored by the ECU. If you have the proper diagnostic tools and software, you shoukld be able to pull info from via OBD.

haha - thought I was in an aviation forum for a minute. EGT and CHT is very important on normally aspirated, air cooled aircraft engines

No, there is no such sensor (installed from the factory).

Something like this could do it but messy to install.

I'm curious about why you care ... on a water cooled engine?
