Re: O2 Sensor Placement

I run an MSD Atomic. I put the sensor on the passenger side downpipe of the exhaust "H-pipe" approx 3 inches from the flange mounted at approx 25 degrees tilt toward the fender. Be sure to mount in a manner that does not interfere with getting a socket on the exhaust flange.
