Two extensions for the fronts, and two sims for the rear.

I'm selling a pair of 02 sims for the LS1 for $60 shipped. They're 5 months/ 3000 miles old. I bought them new from www.thunderracing.com this summer. Let me know if you're interested. That's $60 shipped (very firm).

go to the link that 01TAflyer provided for you and support our sponsors. By the way the link that you provided was a general listing of extensions and not a specific one.

If I remember correctly I bought a 24'' and a 12'' extension when installing my LTs. you need the ones with the square connectors.

I ordered my extensions from LS1Speed, they told me that I need two of the 12" ones, hope that is right. Also check them out they are like $16.95 there.

the stock bolts should be fine but I upgraded to some stage 8 bolts for some extra peace of mind.

If I have the rear O2's turned off via a Predator tune, will that eliminate the need for the sims?

no. You need ls1edit or hptuners to turn off the SES light and clear the codes.

Not to hijack a thread, but would i be safe using stock header bolts with 85k+ miles?

You should be ok, I did my header install last week and I have 65,9 on the car....those bolts are a bitch. At the least, get some new stock bolts. I wish I had

I used the stock bolts and after a few thousand miles most of them had backed out a bit so I bought a new set of Stage8 Header bolts from www.thunderracing.com. they look mighty nice and are guaranteed not to back out.
