O2 Sensor Location
#1
Guys, I having my CMI tails setup for O2 bungs. I tried doing some searches but didn’t get anywhere.
What side are you installing O2 sensors? I’ve seen a couple people reference doing the odd bank but with a single plane intake #8 is the farthest away. Does it matter? I have twins so maybe even on one, odd on the other?
Either way, looks like I’ll need to have them inline with then water inlet. Not a lot of room. Pic below is pre-carb builds.
Thoughts? I’m headed out shortly to drop off pipes.

No it would not fit in the space I had. I modified my HP bracket to mount the Merc std head and added a temp sender to it. I used the Hardin 7 plate oil cooler that mounts onto the flywheel cover. All very tight but turns out very clean.
Again before clean up and detailing.

Nice!
Mine took a whole different turn with locations on a lot of stuff. I made new brackets for everything on the backend. I have my filters vertical because there was no room at all with the monster oil cooler. End to end it’s about even with the inside of the header tubes.

I hope it all fits back in the boat! Lol
Anyway, sorry to have hijacked my own thread. I dropped everything off at the fabricator this afternoon. I should have the pipes back Friday. I went ahead and had all four done.

Here is the location of mine (before putting the extender on). About 10 o'clock, odd bank. I would also plan ahead for installing a bung extender/heat sink such as this linked below just in case you need it. This cured my issues of having water short out my o2 and I was lucky enough the o2 cable still cleared the hatch.
Heat sink/extender: Innovative HBX-1
