Default which of these 3 o2 sensor lengths do I need

Hi I have an 02 Trans Am wth tsp true duals and pacesetter longtubes. Which of these o2s from rockauto do i need.

DENSO Part # 2344000 11.77" long wire and plug. $48.99

DENSO Part # 2344087 11.81" long wire and plug. $40.00

DENSO Part # 2344025 16.54" long wire and plug $40.00


Also why is the 11.77" wire more than the other 2? Better sensor??

Just buy the one with the longest wires for all positions, then zip-tie the extra slack to the frame. All the 02 sensors are identical and work in any position. Worries are over about getting one thats too short for a position.

Bosch are garbage.

If the Densos only last one year you have a different problem thats killing your sensors. Densos are the best 02 sensors ever made. Much better than AC Delco sensors. GM is now using Densos as their own sensors.

Holy **** man....are your 02 sensors in your muffler......j/k

I think Denso makes 18.51" long sensors....I THINK they do. But damn, how short are you with the 16.54"s???

ya i need a few more inches, the 02s go a lil after the collectors before the X. And the plugs are all the way up. But I think I got a solution. Everyone says to get the Bosch vette rears (think its part# 13111), well since I wanna ditch my Boschs Ill just ask rockauto.com if the Denso vette o2s are long like the bosches.

If that doesnt work then I can just get the plug and play extensions from tsp or thunderracing. I thought all the extensions affected o2 performance but it seems only the splicing method can, not the plug and plays. There are some 19" ones on tsp. Thunderracing has 12" which would be perfect, you can also get them in a high temp teflon version for like $2 more but only on the 24" one. You could also get ones actually made by Racetronix and also with the teflon option but these are only available in 24" teflon or not.

hmmmmmmmmm????????????........... lol
