Default need heat sink for wb sensor?

Just installed my LC-1, and it's working Now I'm wondering if I should add a heat sink for the sensor; instructions say to do this if temp gets to 900F. Mine is using the location of the B1S2 (after cat) sensor, after the stock cat - anyone know how hot this gets?

are you saying you have the wideband after your cats? Thats not exactly a good idea. a form of combustion goes on inside the cats as well and can skew your readings....here....http://www.performancetrucks.net/for...d.php?t=345246

Well check this for the opposite opinion, and check the linked article for a good test:

Also, on my one test drive so far, at part throttle it reads about 14.55 afr, which is pretty close.
