The Header on the left of the picture is my everyday port-side use header. I have a matching starboard-side Header that I run on the boat.
The Header on the right of the picture is the port-side Header I put on for tuning. It has an O2 bung welded into it. I do not have a match for it. The primary tubes on this header are 1 1/2" longer than the primaries on my starboard header.
My question is, Am I hurting the motor by running a mismatched set of headers. Also would this effect my 02 readings.

Yeah even on the same header each tube is a little different in length. On manifolds I think the differnce between cylinders is even more.
