Question Best Place To Buy O2 Extensions?

Where is the best place to buy O2 Extensions? And I do need (2) right? For a 95' LT1.

24" seems to be the best length, Correct?

I'm really tired of spending money on this new system, after I buy these extensions and new Plug Wires that go overhead I'll have spent $1k on this new exhaust system. I swear to god if it tries to act all shitty and need to be retuned I'll set it ablaze.

I've heard everyone has problems when they "do it theirselves"... I've heard lots of people recommend buying the plug and play style...

I can solder and do wiring... its not rocket science...

I did mine and everything work just fine. If you do it don't forget to use heat shrink.

Look over in the sponsor list and hit up Speed Inc. I've ordered from them several times and they've been great to deal with.

As for doing them yourself, it won't really cost anything to try it. I soldered mine and used heat shrink and it didn't work out for me.

in the market for some also. What length to get, that way you dont have too much extra wire? EDIT: just saw the other thread about this.

I got 18" O2 extensions from MarylandSpeed when I bought my Kooks headers. My car is a '94. I believe they were only offered in pairs, but I only needed one extension for the passenger side. The driver's side didn't require an extension.

I used 12" and they were more than long enough. I bought casper electronic extentions from summit racing.

I agree 12" is perfect for the passenger side and 24" is perfect for drivers side. I ended up using the wire pacesetter gave me and its fine so far *knock on wood*
