[Diy_efi] Oxygen sensors and superchargers

[Curtis Richards]

Happy Fourth to one and all,

Can anyone give give me some pointers on mounting O2 sensors on 
supercharged engines?  When I installed Megasquirt 'n Spark on my 
normally aspirated 1946 CJ2a ( L134 flathead engine ) I used 4 wideband 
LSU O2 sensors and four type K thermocouples to tune the system.  The 
L134 has siamesed intake ports and separate exhaust ports ( 1930's high 
tech? ).  I hooked everything to a laptop and used the data to gradually 
lean out the engine until optimum all the while using the EGT and fuel 
air ratio to monitor the individual cylinders.  By staggering the 
injector pulses and varying the pulse timing I was able to maintain 
control of the siamesed ports tendency to starve fuel to one port. 

I am now installing a 'belt drive turbo'  or Gator supercharger system 
on my Jeep and before I burn holes in the pistons I thought I'd ask:

Will this approach work with a supercharged engine? 
Will the the extra heat load mess up placement of the O2 sensors? 
Should I move the O2 sensors to a cooler area of the header tubes and go 
with self heating sensors?

Or am I worrying over trifles?

TIA  for any help you can give me!
