[DeTomaso] Techno Question: Bung placement on headers for A/F sensor

[Dave Londry]

That is good stuff Chuck and giving all that info first priority,
  the farther you are from the outlet - the lower the rpm at which 
you'll get stable A/F readings.
The reversions in our short exhaust systems are really fierce.
Below about 1700 rpm I get nothing but crap.

   Chuck,


   The bung should be mounted at the 12 o'clock position so condensation
   does get to the sensor on startup.


   I welded mine on the exhaust pipe just after the collector because my
   engine was in the car and I could easily remove the exhaust pipe to do
   the welding.

   The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing.
   Do the best you can with what your have where you are.
   Have fun today!
