I would like to install a probe style thermometer in my Selkirk Shur-temp HT flue that is installed on a Flame Monaco fireplace. What is the best unit to use and where is the best location? Thanks in advance!

Selkirk and Duravent are two different companies, but regardless one does not put a probe thermometer into the chimney pipe that comes off the ZC fireplace.
Yes in double wall stove pipe not double wall chimney pipe.Yeah, Meant Sure-temp. As far as not putting a probe on a ZC with Double Wall, i found plenty of threads where people where putting probes in Double Wall. Just didn't find any consensus on brand or location.
Yes but you are using it on double wall pipe right? The op is talking about chimney pipeI've used this one on several installs, seems very accurate - just don't peg the needle at 1000F+

I did not have good results with the condor unit made for double wall pipe.

mjstef there's a major difference between double-wall stove (connector) pipe and double-wall chimney (class A) pipe. Probe thermometers are made for stove pipe only, not for chimney pipe. But even if there was one made for chimney pipe, how would you see the thermometer once the wall is closed up for the ZC fireplace?
Don't know, most OAKs are unrestricted. Do you anticipate a problem? Is the OAK intake on the windward side of the house?
