Default Header Install / Needs

I am going to place an order today and I am going to go with the Pacesetter Headers. I want to purchase today, So I need to know everything I will need. Right now I am thinking the headers, Y-Pipe, O2 sims (how many??) will I need extensions? Anything I need to make the job easier and / or make sure it is done right. How difficult or issues have other run into when installing these? Any tips from others who have installed these headers? Thanks in advance for your input. Thanks in advance!!!

You will need two o2 extensions and two o2 sims. As hourang stated, will you be keeping air/egr? If so (it will set an engine light if you remove them w/o LS1 edit) I think you will want some new air/egr gaskets and if you do remove the air/egr (my recomendation) you will need blockoff plates.

Edit: depending on the year of your car, not sure if i missed it or if you don't have it posted, you may or may not even have EGR.
