Question Queston about o2 simulators

Obviously my car does not have any catalytic convertes. Where would i install the o2 simulators, in the front 2 or rear 2 locations? Once hooked up, will the SES light automatically go out? I tried putting the sims in the front and the little red LEDs started blinking. Does that mean they are working? So do the sims go in the front or rear? Ive read that the car needs the o2s to be hooked into the front, if not the car will run like crap. Also, the rear o2s basically make sure the cats are working. Thats why you can use simulators in place of the rear o2s. Thats from a post i read by WhiteRhino from LS1TECH.

put the sims on the rear. once on back, ses will eventually turn of. under no circumstances should sims be used on front unless you like, switch to carburated and use em to keep mud out of the connecter or something.

Dont put the sims on the front o2's!!! They go on the back. You reuse the stock o2 sensors on the front.

Question o2 Sensors

Where exactly are the 2 rear o2 sensors located? I haven't looked yet today and before i do, i just wanna know right off where to install the o2 sims. So im supposed to just hide and tuck the disconnected plugs after the sims connect in? If so, what are some good methods of doing so?

just follow your exhaust back until you see them. They are not hidden or anything, so you should be able to see them no problem. Just unscrew the 2 sensors and then plug in the o2 sims.
