Default O2 question

Quick question, what is the difference between the rear O2 sensors and the front O2 sensors on a 2000 Z28? I want to know if I can take the rears and use them in the front to help trouble shoot some issues. I have ORY and LT headers using sims in place of the rear O2 sensors. Is it just longer wire or will it not read correctly if I plug them in where the front ones go?
thanks in advance

Well got my answer, pulled them out and compared, they had same part number. Unfortunately I now have to have at least one new bung welded in b/c of Ohio and cheap headers.

I know, this is 8 yrs of rust belt weather on some ceramic coated headers! If the headers come out the motor is coming with it.

Thats enough to **** you off. Trying to trouble shoot and ending up fixing more than you were planning on.

Hey blk-2000-z28, I live in Marysville, too. I'm runnin around in a NBM 98 Z28 with polished ZR1's. It's stock for now, but I do have a set of used coated Hooker headers waiting to go on as soon as I get the rest of the exhaust. Now, I'm starting to wish I would have gone stainless...

Did you DD yours for them to get that bad?
