I have not installed a exaust probe yet, but will be doing so soon. I have seen the passenger manifold install and I have also seen exaust systems that come with a bung for a probe. What is the best location and also what are the install tips/tricks??

Make sure when you drill the manifold you get it in a spot where the handles on the tap will make a full turn. I did'nt and had a heck of a time tapping the hole. I also left the engine running so it would blow the metal shavings out, just be sure to wear gloves.
