aftermarket thermostat for factory gauge

hey all, been a while since I've been around. been busy getting my truck done. I'm trying to keep my factory gauges in my 59 dash after doing an engine swap to a 350 crate motor and relocated fuel cell. I've got the oil pressure, speedo, fuel tank, and amp part figured out. but I'm having trouble figuring out the temp gauge. has anyone else dealt with this? what did you do.

and to nip this in the but now, no.. I'm not willing to add another temp gauge under the dash somewhere.

thanks!!

NAPA p/n mpe ts6469sb is what I'm using with my stock gauge.

That should be the one. And it is a temperature sending unit not a thermostat.
