First thing is it is not recommended to extend the O2 sensor harness with out and actual plug to plug extension harness. Did you just extend the wires?

Also, if the headers were new and coated they have been known to mess up the O2s. Do a search on here I'm sure there is a way to pull them be able to tell if they got messed up by the header coating.
