in the 3rd runner, distance from the head is determined by the size of your primaries. the distance from the head should the half the diameter of your primaries.

The third cylinder generally runs leaner than the other cylinders.

what do you guys think, is an EGT worth having if it is tapped in the downpipe, after the turbo, or should I even use it?

Using the EGT in the DP after the turbo would be better than NOT having it. But you will still get better readings from the #3 runner.
