I'm looking to see if there is a shorter front 02sensor for the 420a. Pretty sure mine had a stock or regular parts store sensor.
My issue is that my 02 sensor is hitting the bottom of my fan shroud and it broke. I have an aftermarket header so I dont think the sensor is in the stock location. Any help on this would be appreciated since I've made my eyeballs hurt looking thru everything on here LOL
 
With most (cheap) aftermarket headers, the O2 sensor is in a crap spot. Back when I did my buddies 98 GS build, he got a chebay header and it has the same problem. We ended up trimming the fans shroud to get clearance as we didn't have a welder or the money/patience to take it to a welder to redo the bung.

I'd recommend relocating it for next results, but you can try to clearance the shroud if it'll work for you.
 
Thank you guys. I'll upload a pic with this reply but I may just have to relocate. Thankfully I have access to a welder! I may try to trim the fan shroud first tho! I just put a new ntk sensor in and it looked shorter than the other one at first glance but it's the same. Yes it's the one in the picture LOL. Once again. Thank you for the assistance
