I've been running ACDelco 13577429 sensor ($60.00 on amazon) for almost two years now with no issues so far. This is on an evo 8 running flex fuel (stock ecu).

I run the Continental sensor on my 9. Have had it for 2 ish years without an issue.
I mounted mine in the return line behind the intake manifold on the firewall. There was a stud there for AC lines I think that I built a bracket for the sensor off of.

Yes. The sensor also comes in different sizes in the actual body and the input/outputs tube lengths.

Small (what I recommend) Approx $50
#13577429 or 13507129 (newer part #)

Medium
#13577379

Medium with longer input/output tubes
#13577394

Pigtail for all of the above
#13352241

I offer brackets that mount the sensor on the firewall, completely bolt on.
