Default 02 sensor placement?

hey guys im building my twin turbo set up using factory c6 manifolds flipped upside down and forward.I was wondering if i can put the 02 sensors in the manifold like factory or do they need to be placed somewhere else on the exhaust. should they be placed before the turbo or after. thanks

narrow bands in the manifolds like factory, wide bands in the downpipes about 12 inches after the turbos

I was told the narrowbands might burn up eventually due to the heat if they are before the turbo.

they dont even function correctly under 600 degrees Fahrenheight, theyll be fine. Besides, they have to be before the turbo to get a correct reading but close enough to the motor that they dont get gasses from the other bank. every single front mount f body has em that way, the O2s will be fine
