A simple kit is the AEM 30-4110. Here's the cheapest place I found selling it. AEM 30-4110 Wideband UEGO kit - Great for Monitroing Air-Fuel Ratios - new LSU4.9 sensor Before ya go drilling holes you should get the kit and read the instructions. My kit said sensor needs to be at least 18" from the exhaust port. I installed mine in my double wall tails like Eddie Young showed doing it in the link. It's incredibly simple doing it that way. Here's some wideband compare info.....https://10carbest.com/best-wideband-gauges
Put bungs in both exhaust. You can run the double kit or 2 of the single kits are cheaper. Or just a single and switch back and forth and compare.

Makes sense, I was thinking that would be the only way to do it, and getting access to that inner pipe.
The procedure in that link would be a little easier as long as the clearance between the inner and outer pipe is small enough to allow the inner pipe to dimple in. Great info and images.
I have a feeling I wil be doing it the way "Paxtonspeed" did as I think there might be about 3/8"-1/2" between the walls. I will have to drill an 1/8" hole to find out before I figure out which hole saw to start out with.
See the photoshopped image below, are these locations for the O2 sensor adequate? A or B or....

Thanks agian

Ive had good luck with these (link below) for preventing water on the sensor. It does delay the response time.....so I wouldnt use it for accelerator pump tuning or other quick transients....but for steady state stuff it works well.

That would be perfect if the bung could be welded from both sides, pretty tight access to the inside though, but looks like it could be done (obviously yours worked well) with a torch with a short back cap and maybe a swivel torch. Going to see what my welder thinks about the access.
