For the O2 sensor, I got a "bung" that I welded into the exhaust system.
It's the same thread as an 18MM spark plug. I think I got it at NAPA,
but I'm not sure.

Thanks, Bob -- the bung is clearly the way to go!
Paul - I have a choice of a steel bung for $5.95 & a stainless bung for
$6.95. Any reason to pick one over the other? (In terms of weld-ability I
mean).

Go with the SS. Do you have a scope? I might be able to bring mine
if not. We need to get a handle on this intake pulsation problem.
