ok i just recently installed a new header pacesetter 70-1191 long tubes..
i noticed before i put them on that the fitting for the o2 sensor is larger than the 02 itself..
The question i have is what can be done to fix this problem.. i have two ideas: first is either plug it and relocate the sensor, and does the upstream sensor need to be in a specific place in the exhuast?
Second can i get a threaded fitting that will fit the o2 sensor as well as the fitting on the manifold.. (not sure of the name of that type of adapter??)

You can either have a new bung welded on, OR take the header to an auto parts house and match an O2 Sensor to the threads.

You could find some kind of adapter. But I don't think the sensor would get into the Exhaust stream enough to work right. Upstear sensor Just needs to be installed , Upstream of the Cats.

Napa has adaptors.

ok if i cant get the right adapter i can just plug it and move it further down the down pipe.. thank you guys i have to spare bung that i can get welded on when i install that new exhaust

Glad it worked out.

OK got another question about these headers and o2 location...

Im goin to have true duals with H-pipe... my problem now will be placing the upstream o2 sensor in a fisable location,, on the stock system it was just after the collector but cant do that with duals.. can i set it in on one side reading the air/fuel mixture for 3 cylinders or does it have to read all 6 cylinders..?

Thought of setting it in the h-pipe but i don't think that will read all the gases and plus i plan on using that to put the secondary sensor so it thinks there's a cat converter..

All answer and suggestion more than welcome other than the fact im doing true duals it can be done and sounds raspy, no real benefits just something diff.

JeepingDan

I would put it where it's going to read all 6

so what do have a small xpipe basically as a collector and set it there??

JeepingDan

yup. You got pics?

nope none yet i actually have done alot to the jeep so far and havent posted any i have some of them.. did the herculiner in the whole cab.. installed all new speakers marine pyle.. in-dash tv radio.. no longer have rear bench but plan on getting new seats for the front and move the stock one to the back if i can figure out that problem.. all new gaskets no a/c electric fan no clutch fan.. HID conversion kit 8000k. clear corner lights with led bulbs..

Thats is it for now i think... but shes not going to be the everyday jeep im taking it to a diff level.. most wont like it but its still a jeep a anything can be done with it.. Im NO RICER either.. this is being built to chew up all them lil ******* and prob a few of the euros too. but still can be takin of road but not the extreme..

Once i get the pics ima post up..
