Looking toward the stern of my boat at the front of the engine, mine is installed in the left side of the T Stat Housing in the port behind the temp sensor.
It would be the left bottom pipe plug as you look at this pic Stainless Steel Thermostat Housing - CP Performance

Would more pressure be seen if the sending unit was mounted in an engine block water jacket?

Somebody must have installed 140* T stats at some point to see those temp readings. All of the 7.4 LX's use a 160* Tstat.
There is nothing wrong with having the water psi you have as long as it flows enough to to keep everything cool.
