Default Mounting EGT sensor in Early Headers O2 location?

Is there an adpator that allows an 1/8th fitting to go into the original O2 sensor location in the early collectors?

I could drill my current headers and weld a bund on but it would be easier for my to port another collector (as I'm doing that anyway) and fit this with the EGT sensor.

Cheers,

Wayne.

93-96 cars had the Lambda sensor in the collector. Relocate that to the down pipe and use the vacated hole for the EGT.
Alternaively, buy an up-pipe with a boss ready to take an EGT sensor.

What sort of temp loss is there between the header location and the up pipe boss when placing the probe?

If you send me your e-mail address I will send a photo of an up-pipe with a welded in boss for a sensor.
