There is a specific reason I'm bringing this thread up from 2yrs dead. I want to know if I can use the 13111's on my LT1 for front O2's.
Now my thought was to take the ends for the rear O2's (that are tuned out) and re-pin the front plug so It would accept the 13111's. Is this a good idea or should I just get extensions and O2's?

Stay away from Bosch products period. go with stock 02 and buy ext. I extended mine myself but everyone will tell u not too. If you dont do it right it throw readings.

Since my post wasnt helpful maybe you should do some more research on here about Bosch 02s and extensions.

I know you didn't mean anything bad, I just wanted to know if it was possible to do the re-pin. ie if they had the same wires. The main reason I opt for the Bosch stuff is I can get it with employee discount . The GM stuff I can't.
I also wanted to do it this weekend on my DD rather than wait a week for the extensions.

I used a soldering iron and heat shrink to extend mine. Been almost 2 yrs now with no problems. A lot of peeps on here disagree about extending the O2s yourself. It wasnt that bad to me. As far as repinning i wouldn't know, i've never heard of it being done with 02s. If you can make it work go for it, I'm all about saving money.

Ok, I've decided I want to try the re-pinning, but I can't seem to find the pin diagram for the new o2 sensor so I can match them up in the plug I have.
I did find shoebox's LT1 flat plug pin guide, though. Half way there for info I guess.

everyone is talking about Bosch 02s. And it's just not on our cars, it's for all makes. we quit using any Bosch product about 3yrs ago at the shop I work at.
