Default What side to mount WBo2??

I was told that it's a good idea to mount the WBo2 on the lean side. Which bank is lean, or which side should I mount the WBo2 sensor??

And is it necessary to run dual WBo2's for datalog/tuning? And why....

And PtII Question....

I was talking with a tuner last night at a show and he was telling me to mount the WBO2 on the steering column and not the A-pillar. What's the difference here?? Easier to disconnect if you need to??

in my expeirience the passenger side tends to run a little leaner that the drivers side, I believe due to the PCV system being introduced on the pass side of the intake manifold

I run mine at the DS because of the number 7 runs leanest compare to the other pistons. Seems notorious with the LS motors.

^ Good deal.. Driver's side it is. He said to put it on the lean side.

And what difference would there be to mounting the WB gauge on the steering column or on the a-pillar?

cylinders are labeled correct but the firing order is GEN1 SBC. Not that it matters for this tho. LOL

LOL. I concur. Disregard the firing order. Was too lazy to DL to paint and edit out the non important parts... for this matter anyways.

I think it's just a preference. Put it to where it doesn't obscure your vision/take your eyes off the road or pretty much like a peripheral vision to you.
