Heat shouldn't be too big of a deal. Innovate makes this heat sink, but it is $90. A cheap heat sink is a 3X3 piece of copper sheet that has a hole barely large enough for the sensor to pass through so that is sandwhiches between the sensor and de bung. MANY people on the Innovate forums do this.

I have had my wideband mounted in the secondary O2 bung for bank 1 (14-16" from the head outlet) for about 2 years now.
Still works as accurately as the day I installed it.

Or so you surmise since you don't have another wideband double checking the first...  j/k. I'm sure you can get a very good indication by comparing upper to lower and bank to bank. Still. You don't knowwwww

Psst. Actually the LM-1 has a calibration tool Mr Forgetful. Mine has always said 20.9% 02 in free air.

Just a side note since I odn't think anyone mentioned it yet. If you are welding in the bung with the piping on the car, try to find a location where the wideband O2 will be horizontal (worst case) or pointing downwards (don't recall the ideal angles, but use the stock ones as a ball-park). If the O2 is pointing up a) you will remove it quickly on your first speed bump and b) condensation can pool on the sensor leading to poor readings and premature failure.

Well if you just plan on having it in for more accurate dyno A/F readings it doesnt sound like mounting position will be a big deal.

10&2 or there abouts is good for mounting an 02. Like mentioned before on the bottom is no good.
