Default 99 Civic Manifold....

Ok so I found a 99 civic manifold are the exhaust openings the same as the HF or STD style. It is just a littlediff more flow design.. havent had time totake cat off tho wich does site vertical

and it has 2 o2 sensors

I think it was a 2 wire and a 3 wire but ive never heard of a 2 wire. is this the stock 5wire wideband setup thati heard some peeps talking about?

Ill verify this tommrow when i go backout inthe blistering cold garage

does anyone else agree that it looks way to low and the oil is gonna have trouble getting back into the pan without a sump setup?

NO, Just cut it where the pipes come together and weld an adapter plate to it. That is what I am going to do.

bwhahaaahaha.

So If I hack it just below the O2 sensor and weld what kind of adapter plate? it will have to be the part I cut offf so their both the same metal right? Or will steel hold to thte cast iron if I hard core mig then go over with stick?....
