You sure they have 2 sensors? I installed my DC SS 4-2-1 and I don't remember my stock manifold having 2 sensors. Just the one towards the end of the header where it bolts up to the rest of the exhaust.

hmmm, you sure it's a b16a2? the 1st gen OBD0 b16's actually had 2 oxygen sensors right on the header. If that's what you have and NOT an OBDII b16a2 then ignore my above post. You can convert to OBD1 or just weld in another O2 bung on the header. Remember to hook the right sensor to the correct banks of cylinders otherwise one set will run lean and the other set will run rich.
