How to run a wideband?
On a boat with wet exhaust? Can you put a sandwhich plate of some kind between the manifold and riser and that will keep the water out of that area and it will get introduced downstream?
Have a couple of LSA blown LSs that will be floating and need tuned in the near future

its a crapshoot, if it gets wet at all its done, killed many, we found only way to get to work was adding it the the header tube about 10" from head, manifolds who knows ?? every engine different come to revision

Not sure how I'm going to fix it yet but I'm talking to a few cam suppliers and having a custom one made.
As far as 02's they work great for tuning but they wont last much over 10hrs. I'm running Holley HP efi on my set-up and I just turn closed loop off after I got everything dialed in. This is on a twin turbo LS on pump gas as well.

You are 100 right but not all are this way, and most the ones I have been around don't last to long, it really is going to depend on the exhaust set-up and cam shaft, there is a lot better cam selection out there for BBC,SBC then there is for LS motors currently. I have talked to a handful of custom cam guys told them my application the issues I'm having and not one of them has a good solutions, before I go spending 400 on a cam and another 250 on a sensor I want to make dang sure my problem will be resolved.

Just curious where you are installing your sensor?
