Looking to add an Air Fuel guage to help finalize my new carb install. Adding a bung for the O2 sensor it seems like I should remove the heat exchangers to help the fabricator add the bung. Is this needed or can it be done while in the car ?? Where to actually add the bung, any suggestions or pics.

that's what I do! Group: Members Posts: 20,065 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Port Hope, Ontario Member No.: 26 Region Association: Canada |
I've been doing some testing, but it was on a 914 2.0 DTM T4 into a bug conversion with a CSP 4/1 SS header into a SS corvette muffler, in/out same side.
A huge area of concern is on each side of the header and muffler flange, the muffler side I see a 150+F drop in temperature. Enough of temp drop that the sensor doesn't have enough heat to be optimal. I was very surprised to see how big of a temp drop it was each side of the exhaust flange. Temps were taken at the end of a 30 minute test run at 3000rpm with a laser gun. Wish I had a stock or SSI /4 to see what the temp in a stock muffler or triad is... For a six I'd put the bung on the header after the collector, but then this becomes a two meter system. |
