Default o2 extensions for 93 z28

I have a set of hooker long tubes that have been staring at me for a couple of months because I can't find o2 extensions. They came with 4 pin extensions but my car has 1 pin connectors and I am just wondering how other 93 guys put long tubes on their cars. Please help, I am dying to put these on.

i did a heated o2 conversion. I got rid of the junk single wire. once us 93 guys put long tubes on the o2 sensors will not heat up properly causing them to go in and out of open/closed loop. Your car will run but not to its full potential. It is a little bit of money at first but to me it is well worth it. If you have any knowledge in wiring it should be pretty simple. here is a link if you decide to go this route. I had mine made, tied in, soldered up, and loomed up in about 2 hours. http://www.fastbird93.com/Installati...Conversion.htm
If you do not wish to go through all of this than you can just cut your wire of the factory harness and extend it to the appropriate length. But i cant not emphasis on this enough please solder the wires so you do not get any signal drop and the point of connection.

Do the Fast Bird conversion, I had mine extended for a good while but it was never right. The car had idle issues once it warmed up, did the conversion and never had problems again

In a 93, you shouldn't need extensions. I sure didn't.
