Good answer, lol! Perhaps a little snippy, but spot-on 
. You know what you want to do and need some advice. And that's cool!
Essentially, putting the sensor in the system somewhere is what you need, wherever and however that makes the most sense and is most reliable.
This is not something a lot of V6'ers have done apparently.
Please let us know what you eventually do, as I might do it someday. Although currently I use a OBDII interface to read the temps from the computer and display it digitally but not all the time.

Any way, the adapter for the rad hose looks promising, I didn't know that existed, I would like to get it in the water jacket, but thats an option, I'll let you know how it turns out.

Whatever you wind up with, I would baseline the temp off the OEM sensor (via ODB) and mentally adjust from there. I would.
When you get it hooked up...post back how close the two are just for grins.
