i re-used my factory gaskets and have NO leaks. they are way better than the pacesetter paper ones.(not sure about the hooker gaskets). as far as the O2 sensors go, there are different routes you could take. you need to have the front ones hooked up for sure. some people splice, i just went to autozone and got some corvette O2's. the wires are way longer than the f-body ones. i just left my rears unplugged and i am getting a tune. i would reccomend a tune anyway. goodluck. (hope you have small hands, j/k, you'll be alright)

yeah i was aksing cus i bought used ones so i wont need new gaskets? and yes i plan on gettin rid of my AIR and Undoing my rear o2's so when i go to get all of it deleted out i wont have a problem. As for the Front o2's i might go with the 13111's on for the vette.

Most people make a trip to the dealer and buy the GM ones. I believe they are around $30. Stock bolts are fine to use, just torque them down every once in a while, they can come loose on you.
