Default Wiring issue with header install

I am putting headers into my brothers car today....and I am a little concerned I routed the exhaust sensor with extensions (the one that connects to the header not the cat) too close to the passenger side header. I have it pressed up against the outer passenger side wall of the engine bay. Any suggestions on where else to route it? Thanks

The car is a 2001 Z28

can you zip tie it so it runs closer to the trans cooler lines?

They all run there, not much you can do but zip tie them a little further away.

You can use DEI fire sleeves, or Thermo-Tec heat sleeves both are good to 2000 degrees max.

Thanks for the responses....I used thermo-Tec heat sleeves, I am hoping that will be good. This is the second set of slp's new design headers I have put in.....SOOOO much easier than the old ones.
