02 Extensions- length?

I am putting longtubes in my 98' Z28. Do I need the 12'' or 24" extensions? Thanks.

I have a 12" and a 24"on my car. They work perfect, but still nothing wrong with 2 24" ones.

Use 2 24" extensions.....OR you can knock out two birds with one stone and buy bosche 13111 o2 sensors (rears off a c5 vette) to replace your stock front o2 sensors. The wires are long enough to eliminate the need for extensions, and they have a hotter heater circuit to prevent the front o2 codes that you're bound to get after installing longtubes and moving the sensor further down the exhaust system.

Pretty simple really, all you have to do is cut the 4 wires between the plug and 02 sensor and splice in enough wire on each of the 4 wires to reach the factory wire harness, then reconnect the plug to your spliced wires. Pacesetter headers even come with the wires and butt connectors to do this.
