Will I need O2 extensions w/MAC Mids?
Will I need O2 extensions w/MAC Mids?
Just wondering what I'll Im going to need for the install and didnt know if the O2's fit good with the Macs and also will I be fine with some Felpro gaskets? Should I use RTV on them and the bolts?
Re: Will I need O2 extensions w/MAC Mids?
I originally needed one, or so I thought, on the drivers side. After taking a better look, I was able to get away without any O2 extensions, but I think I had to release on wire from it's clip behind the engine so that it would reach.
Keep in mind that I have the '94-'95 style MAC's on a '97 so my wiring might be different.

I think since you have a 95 you should be ok. I have a 95 also and i'm going to be installing mac's in a few weeks and i'm hoping i don't need any. I searched and i don't think i found anyone with a 95 that needed an extension.

FOUND ONE! I have a 95 single cat car and I needed one on the passenger side. Drivers side was ok but the passneger side was just a few inches short... Which really sucks since the smallest extension I could get at the time was a foot long. So I have a bunch of extra wire coiled around.

Didn't need them either.
Gaskets: Mac coppers dry. No leaks after a year. I also bolted the headers up tight 1st, then massaged the Y-pipe to fit perfectly without stressing the header bolts. Just make sure you retorque until they quit getting loose (header bolts). Mine took about 6-7 times before they quit loosening up. Also check the header/Y-pipe nuts a couple of times. My passenger side came loose after a couple of months.
