From what I understand you can go to a muffler shop and have them weld in the correct size o2 sensor bung.

No need when the adapters are $12/per and bolt right up.

you want to make sure that the o2 sensor protrudes down past the adapter or it will not be in the down stream flow of the exhaust. and won't get a very accurate reading. that is the problem i have been told with those adapters they are to thick and sensors sits to high.
