To clarify, i will need:
Turner header swap kit (gaskets etc)
2 of those 02 bungs

anyone know of the best places to order both of these items? and what is the solution for relocating the egt. Did y'all just remove the one from your current headers or is there another solution.
you need to mark everything in banks..... bank 1 sensor 1, bank 2 sensor 1 , bank 1 sensor 2 , bank 2 sensor 2 ........cylinders 1 2 3 is bank 1 , cylinders 4 5 6 is bank 2 , so that means the header at the front is bank 1 and the header at the back is bank 2 ..

Found this thread on the EGT bung

Looks like they're saying that 1/8 NPT is equal to the M14 x 1.5 OE
