The only(?) drawback to that spot on the water pump is it's the inlet to the engine from the radiator... so it will always indicate 20 or as much as 30 degrees cooler than the coolant temperature in the engine. Even lower / worse if the thermostat happens to stick shut or the radiator is obstructed.
It's not necessarily a 'bad' place to locate the sensor, just something to be aware of.

Hmm...the reason I put it there was that it was the only other place I could find with a threaded port. I saw that some people drill and tap the intake near the thermostat housing, but the metal is thin there, and I don't want to mess up my intake.
