Default BAD...fire under LT1 camaro

my buddys 97 z28 had a small grass fire under the engine over the winter, didnt think that it was that big untill i picked up his car and put it in my garage. small fire he says. well all the 02 sensor wires are burnt, up past the headers, not sure where they go after that. underside of car is all black, what a mess, hes going to replace all the 02s and wires this weekend, but the wires are burnt past where i can reach from underneath, up past headers going towards the computer. is this possible to fix? keep in mind wires are shot, need to be compleatly replaced.
