Isn't the GEM a single cylinder monitor?


No.

The EDM-700 has six and I think that precludes using the Tanis.


No it does not. There are several options available, including dual use
probes as well as the heated bolts that I have. It may be more expensive,
however.


It is, apparently. It also must be "customized" to the particular engine.

Right now it looks like $2300-$3000 or so for the Tanis system, or $675 for
the Reiff system for the bird I'm looking at.


I have no experience with the Reiff system.

With a cover, my cylinders are usually around 100°F and the oil around

80°F
with OAT's down to -5°F or so.


Gets the cabin heater going more quickly, too, I surmise.


If I had a decent cabin heater, it might ng.


Bummer, dude!!
