I understand there may be an issue with the O2 sensor placement on the front bank (and therefore an extension is required). The rear should match up fine.
Am using OEM cats and a different exhaust (those exhaust adapters have already been sourced and the exhaust is on the car.)
My questions are:
* Is there a longer-wired O2 sensor I can put on the front bank so as NOT to use a connector?
* Would there be any reason to not put 00+ OEM headers on (besides the 2cm/ 3/4" difference in front to rear length)?
* Will the headers hit the main beam (or anything else for that matter)?
* Is the other O2 sensor going to be an issue for me placement-wise?
* Is there anything I am not considering here?
To run through the current setup again, I have a 1995 with stock manifolds mated to a Tubi exhaust. The cats are still in place as are the O2 sensors. I have no desire to delete any O2 sensors or to run test pipes.
My goal is simply to bolt on a set of 1997-99 OEM headers. I have a spare set of 00+ headers I could use, but I know that they rear bank is shy a bit and if left unadjusted, will make the exhaust sit at an angle (best-case.)
Thanks in advance.
