I bet the 25-30 dollar price is for the one wire version. I'm sure our 4 wire set-up will be more expensive.

Yes they are more expensive, I actually just got a set they are right infront of me. Here are the part numbers for an Ls1 F-body:
DEN 234-4025 $57.36
DEN 234-4087 $60.25

Is there any side-effect to running these at all times?

C16 for when you are on spray right, it's for 17:1 total compression setups.

I've been running the denso 02 for a while on both leaded and unleaded, granted it is the one wire, but has worked without any problems so far.
Are the 02s on the LS1s heated?
I believe the heated 02s are more tolerable to lead than non heated.

How do the quality of these compare to a GM sensor though? Has anyone used regular Denso O2's?

It has been said MANY times that aftermarket oxygen sensors aren't as accurate as what the GM sensors are. Given that they're the same price as GM pieces I don't see why people wouldn't buy these instead, given the need.

These are much better than delco sensors,they will out last delcos by at least a factor
of 3 from what the turbo boys tell me.
