Frank, while installing my headers a few weeks back, it occured to me
that you might be able to space the O2 sensors out from the pipe just a
little bit, like a spark plug non fouler. If the O2 couldn't shiff as
much exhaust, it might send a stronger signal. Make any sense? I don't
pretend to know about this stuff, just a crazy thought. Alan S.
attached mail follows:
Jon,
Still have a lean condition but the thoughts are that the O2 sensor is
reading on the rich side and the computer is adjusting and leaning out the
engine. I'll try replacing the O2 and see what type of results we get. We
are also going to run Bruces RT on the Dyno and see what he gets. Also the 4
BBL is available today but the MPI manifold has been delayed until 2nd
quarter next year....
