Installing EGT question?
Installing EGT question? Which cylinders usually run the leanest on the LS1 cars? I'm welding in my probes and want to make sure I put them on the leanest cylinders.
Thanks in Advance, Carl

That would be around 3-4" down the manifold runner from the leanest cylinder.
The leanest cylinders on an LS1 seem to be the #7, first, and the #8, second. You make the call.
