Exhaust Questions
Friday, April 27, 2007 10:50 AM
Ok I have a few questions about my car.
1. Will the stock o2 sensor work on a Pacestter header, I mean reach the bung? The stock is mounted on the side and the headers on the bottom.
2.The diemensions of my new cat converter are 13.5" long, 4" tall and 6.5" wide will this fit under the car in the stocl location?
3. Where can I find a gasket for my Pacesetter header?

Thanks for any input

1) i think just extend the wires if it dont reach
2) not sure. but i dont see why it wouldnt
3) pacesetter headers come with a gasket. but most people just use the stock gasket. or go to an autoparts store and get one from them

The pacesetter header that I got came with a gasket, but it was a cheap paper style one. I went to napa and got a metal one.

You need to extend the wires to reach the o2 bung. The Header I got came with wires to extend it with. DONT extend the PLUG side of the o2 wires, extend the CONNECTOR (PCM) side, so you dont have to extend a new o2 sensor if you ever have to replace it.

For the cat you bought sounds like it will fit, just go under the car with it and a tape measure to make sure. IMO you should have measured first, no?

yes I agree I should have measured my bad. so when can I find a extension for my o2?

All I did was use the 14ga wire that came with my header, (from what I have seen most headers come with something to extend the connector) cut and soldered to make an extension. Im sure that theres a pre-fab unit out there, but itll be more money than just doing it yourself. I didnt look for it but google should be able to find you something.
