Default got my hooker longtubes today, Drilling out o2 sensor?

the o2 sensor bung is welded in, but theres no actual hole in the header itself, so i called hooker and they said they do that on purpose for people that dont want the sensor there, all i have to do is drill it out..

Yeah, drill it out and weld a bung in it, not bad at all, Just dont face it straight down, put it in an area that has enuff room to thread it in and be out of the way..

If you dont have the right size drill bit a die grinder with bit will open it up.
