You can do 1 of 3 things. Get extensions to reach, repin the old rear o2 sensors in the pcm to the front ones and just switch the plugs or you can get new sensors made for the rear of a c5 vette which have longer leads on them. My advice is that if yours are the originals or even just old to get the vette ones as lt's will kill old o2's very quickly
