I bought one o2 for a vette and one for an Fbody. If you buy both for a vette one will be wayyyyyy to much wire. The only side that needs to be extended is the drivers side 02. The stock length on the other side fits fine.

Will sims hurt my engine in any way? i've heard some bad things about them and i didn't know if they were a good idea. Do they mess with the fuel to air ratio? as of now i just have the two rear sensors all taped up under the car... didn't know what else to do with them

I got two 24" extensions from Speed Inc when I did mine, around $30 for the pair. Make sure you tie up any slack when you install, especially on the driver side where it will hang close to the headers. One of the sides needed less than 24" probably only 12" but I can't remember which. sorry.
As mentioned the vette o2's are $ and I wouldn't get them unless you NEED new o2's.
Get a set of new GM gaskets too, the ones that come with the headers are cheap. I've heard of guys re-using the stock ones but for $20 imo it's worth getting a new set.

Alright, thanks man! i just wanted to make sure... what do the rear o2 sensors do anyway?
