O2 sensors and Headers

I have mentioned in here before that I am intrested in putting true duals on my '89 N/A... When I make my headers, how do I go about incoporating two O2 sensors in to the wiring?

Ok...I am taking it; either no one knows the answer to this question or it is not possible... If it is not possible, then what do I do to remove that portion of my emissions and not have a car that runs like crap...
By the way... I am aware that I should use the edit button instead of replying to my own post, but for whatever reason the edit button was not there...

The edit button is only there for 30 minutes after you post.
And you don't need 2 o2 sensors. The RB road race (true dual) header only uses one o2 sensor, so you should be fine with 1.

Well, he is using a true dual system, so the pipes never connect. That said, the o2 sensor is only used under low-throttle cruising, so there is no need to have it monitoring both rotors.
