I have a Bassani o/r x pipe (5 piece) and a Autometer digital a/f wideband. Now, where is a good place to weld/put the wideband bung onto the x pipe? Driver's side? Passenger side? Before the o/r piping or cats or after? Pics please if available? Thanks...
Bung location...where to?

On the x-pipe, drivers side, before the cats.
General rule is to install it on the drivers side as close to the manifold as practical. The closer to the manifold you mount it the faster and more accurate your reading will be.
Right before the CATs. Make sure you buy an SS bung and have it welded in with a SS welder/rod. I had the same setup on my Cobra.
You have a PM by the way.
and if i remember correctly, between 9 and 3 o'clock in relation to the circumference of the pipe with as close to 12 o'clock and humanly possible
Why does this matter? Does this somehow change the reading of the sensor similar to clocking a MAF meter? I would think as long as the sensor was close to the manifold everything should be OK. Hot pressurized exhaust gas is hot pressurized exhaust gas, right? :shrug:

it has to do with moisture accumulating on the sensor... a by product of the car is gas(g) and water (l) among other things.
If you are O/R, why not just use the hole for the 02?
lot of wideband setups only give you a certain length of cord to deal with... that's a longggggg way back on those rear 02s. it would also stick up kind of high.
