Default Where to put O2 sensor on merge collector?

I have a set of the Edelbrock LT's but am not sure exactly where the best place is for the O2 sensor to go on the merge collector...

Thanks,

Jason

I think maybe the right answer is to put them in the Y-pipe
as close after the connection as possible. Especially if you
have the coated headers, then you don't have to breach
the coating to weld in the bungs. If you use the 'vette rear
O2s you should have surplus wiring slack? In the Y you won't
be interfering with any merge collector airflow mojo going on.

I put it right in the smallest section of the merge collector. That way it will see a true collection of the four primaries without letting it cool too much.

Seems to be working good now that I installed the 'vette rear o2s.
