In the near future I have to install a set of new headers on my BN6. With a
minimal investment of effort or money I could also install an oxygen sensor in
each down-pipe and use them to fine tune the mixture - targeting the magic
14.7 to 1 ratio. I have a friend who did this on his MGA and he swears by it.

The sensors have to be mounted close to the engine in order to keep the
operating temperature high and, in theory, they should measure around 600mv
when the air/fuel ratio is set just right.

Any one tried this?
