They are almost fully round but are missing a slit so the wires can go there when putting the socket on the sensor. Just for you guys that have never seen one....

First of all, no penetrating oils... not a good idea on exhaust. What you want to do is take a torch and apply a good amount of heat to the pipe surrounding the o2 sensor. Once you've got that nice and hot, take a can of that compressed air they use to clean out keyboards, turn it upside down, and spray the o2 sensor. Have a wrench handy to start wrenching on it right away.

I have a super 44 flowmaster right now and im thinking about going to a 10 series because the case is so much smaller. only thing im afraid of is how loud it will be. The super 44 gives a nice sound but i got the whole bottom of the case dented in already. im not too sure what to do
