Default Best place to put O2 sensors?

I have a FAST dual wide band o2 setup that I'm gonna put in the car. I was planning on mounting the sensors in the collectors. Is that ok?

You want to make sure you mount it in the top half of the pipe. If you mount it in the bottom then condensation in the pipe can hit the hot sensor cracking it.

Innovate also warns to not put them in a spot that gets too hot. They say the sensor needs to stay under 900°F. They sell a heat sink that can be used to keep the temps down.

so in the collectors or just after them should work.
