Does anyone know what happens if I use regular copper wires to connect
my EGT probe to the gauge.
It is impossible to find the required length, proper EGT extension leads
for a pusher type engine.
I have a Sky Flight EGT Gauge that require a K type probe.

I don't think that works.

You can get K thermocouple wire any length you want from:

Twist the ends together and heat it with a micro torch
until it melts together.

You can get this in rolls of 50, 500 or 1000 foot.
