Default Paul's dipstick bracket still available?

Proud new ZR-1 owner.

Getting ready to do headers. Bought the obx headers. Been reading about "Paul's dipstick bracket" for header install. Will I need this? How do I go about getting one from him? I tried messaging him but maybe it was wrong person.

Anything else I'll need? (Ordering new gaskets from Jerry of course)

Such a simple piece really, but Paul has them in stock. They are cheap and really help to complement a header install.

Installed OBX headers last year:

-You might want to change your o2 sensors while you're there.
-You will have to cut a nipple and weld it, on one of the headers (if you have a 90-91-92-93).
-You will need to hit a pipe with a hammer (on the headers) on the driver's side so that it clears the steering shaft.

Michael n David:

The "nipples" being referred to are part #SLE 30115 "O2 bungs" from Summit Racing. They are mounted laterally to the header collector, so that they are facing toward the side, and slightly upward (to be clear of road debris you might run over.

Also, you'll need a couple of plugs to fill the old O2 holes on top of the collectors. ( I welded them in at the same time I welded in the bungs.)

Is it necessary to change the O2 sensor location? if so, are they angled inside or outside?
