Default Looking for input 02 heater and evap not ready

Im tring to get my camaro inspected but it has 2 not readys 02 heater and evap. I just put 2 new 02 sensors in and use the bosch 13111 vette rear ones. The car has slp longtube headers, Heads and cam. I put about 60 plus miles on the car today about 30 miles each way to pearland but it still shows evap and 02 heater not ready. Any one know what I can do to get one or the other ready so I can pass inspection?

Sometimes it takes up to 150 miles. The new o2's needed to cycle several times before they will be ready.

the evap needs to see a temperature drop (cold start in morning) to run.... It will be very difficult for that to happen now, unless you know someone with an a/c shop to park in overnight....

02's will need a few drive cycles as mentioned....

Heaters and EVAP need cold start and decent idle time. Let it cool as much as it can then start it and let it idle and warm up completely at idle. Also make sure it has between 1/4 and 3/4 tank of fuel for the EVAP to run.

Try that first. Also check it for pending codes, in my experience relearn comes to a screeching halt once it sets a code, pending or MIL.
