I was thinking of those but it has been mentioned that they are not a cure for the problem im having for some people. Its a hit or miss. None can even verify if the heater is higher on the vette ones. I just put a new stock bosch in. Ill see how long this one lasts. I drove probly 25 miles and the onlt codes I have are the typical ones for no cats. But we will see cause it took a month for the last one to gimme that code again

I managed to ****** up 2 Delphi sensors on eBay for $40 each. Just gotta be at the right place at the right time I suppose.

Oh, and for the folks wondering about the Delphi sensors, I've had no problems with 'em.

I bought my Denso O2 sensors from Rockauto, and they were about 40.00 each i believe? With an extension, they worked great.

On a side note, i ordered my Gatorbacks from them too, and the price was great!
