I found the Denso Vette Number 234-4012

But look in the Imagine...I thought are Fbody's have a squared Four Plug not a Flat Four?

Right - F-bodies have the squared four plug. The 234-4617 rear sensor should be the one for our cars. It also should have the longer cable so as to obviate the need for an extension.

Those bastards are almost 100 bucks a pop, it would be cheaper to get the Fbody one's with the extension's in that case

How much are the F-body fronts? Since I already have extensions, no sense in paying more unless it's a hotter O2 that will tend to throw codes less.

My stockers throw codes and I have to clear them every couple of months.

Wow - big difference in price. I wonder if the heater element is different on the Vette one and thus more expensive - or if you're just paying a Vette premium for the part.

More expensive...unless you spend 50 on extensions and then burn out an o2 or both that is 7 years old with X amount of miles and have to replace them anyway...doesnt make sense to me, just do it once, with new parts and without an extar connector in there...

I'm using jeg's web site as an example.

It's 189 for 2 Vette o2's

For 2 Fbody o2's and 2 24'' Extensions its 149


You do the Math

Bosch 13111 Vette sensors, runs great.
I read somewhere that the heating element is the same as they use on other sensors. But the housing is different, supposed to keep more heat in the sensor.
