Default difference between left and right front O2's

just got a price quote from a reliable source for the front O2's. $28.xx for the left, and $60.xx for the right. i ordered some O2 extention cables today (24" each for my FLP's) and i'm wondering if the price diff is from one being longer then the other (O2's). any feedback on this? can i use 2 left sensors (the cheaper ones).

Yes, you can use the two cheaper ones. The price difference is due to the length differences.

Another tip: order the rear O2 sensors for a C5 Corvette, these suckers are LONG and you will not need extensions to run them with headers.

Heck, the left ones are the longer ones. Wonder why they would be cheaper. My dealer charges me $66 for the left ones. He says they list for like $106. $28 is awesome. Where did you find those? Are they AC Delco?

you know tony, i saw those sensors on a C5 exhaust up against the wall at a local shop and thought the same thing. but i thought i would of heard of someone doing it before now. also thought there could be a calibration difference due the distance from the motor. i'll look into those C5 ones.

Are they AC Delco? Man, $28 is the by far the cheapest I've ever heard of if they are. <img src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">
