Larry,
I have one in my X1/9. They really are all the same. You could buy the
Edelbrock one, but you can also go cheaper. Buy a generic heated O2
sensor and the LED type gauge from Summit Racing for $20 or $30 (can't
remember). Then buy an anti-foul spark plug adapter from the HELP section
of your car parts stor and cut half of it off to use a a "bung" to mount
the sensor.
You DO need a heated type (3 wire) sensor for accuracy.
