It's a Relative Measurment!
Distance from the flange is not super critical. What is critical is that they are all the same distance.
The closer the probes are to the flange, the quicker they will react. The farther away, the longer they will last.
Somewhere between 2" and 4" is a good range.
Also be careful that they don't interfere with spark plug removal.
