O2 sensor too close to starter
Driver's side fit great but on the pass side the o2 sensor is literally resting against the starter. Obviously this is not ideal but what kind of issues might I see from that... maybe ok to leave it that way? Also I'm concerned about the starter being too close to the header and overheating, anyone have a suggestion for this? The only thing I could think of is plug the o2 bung and drill a new one.

They are JBA long tubes. I would post a pic put the car is still at the shop and I forgot to take one earlier. The o2 sensor was resting against the starter but at that point he hadn't tightened the nut down on the sensor so it's possible there was a very small amount of clearance after that. I wont know until tomorrow but if there is any clearance it is going to be very very tight. If they had just moved that bung to side just a hair it would've been fine.
