Mark,

I had always read 10 to 2 o clock?

10 or 2 o'clock, basically 45 degrees.
It's the best position for fully draining the sensor tip of moisture.

If you look at the tip it has a bunch of holes around the tip and a bigger hole in the tip center. The center hole goes nowhere, it's the little holes that needs to drain. Straight up at 12 o'clock the tip can hold moisture in it like a little cup, at 3 o'clock moisture will lay in the sensor. Sitting at a 45* then you are sure both the tip and body drain.

Moisture will/could cause thermal shock as it heats up.

I was just looking at innovates website after I wrote that this morning and they suggest 9 to 3 o'clock. I may look at changing mine though in the future.

Maybe I'm wrong or misinformed, wouldn't be the first time... the 14point7 instructions says between 10 and 2 o'clock.
About 3 feet from the exhaust or turbo outlet.

Mark, I'm in for a setup too, probably a two-harness deal. Let me know as things firm up.

I likely could make each one around $10 cheaper using loose wire and the braided plastic covering.
Not near as nice as the UL grade cable I'm using.
The braided covering is also too expensive locally, to get the price brake I'd have to order it from china, ETA 8 weeks.
