Thank you, Sir!
As my ZR-1 is in the shop right now, I sent the pics and your recommendation of looking through the O2 sensor socket, with your pictures, to my mechanic and asked him to take a look. As it's up in the air already, It's not really much time, or money, right now to take a peak and get some peace of mind.

Wow. Those are some incredible headers. Truly beautiful work. I call dibs if you decide to sell them.
