When you put long tubes on, you keep your front O2 sensors. In order for them to reach almost to the collector (where the O2 bung is) you need a little 2 foot long extension that plugs into the existing O2 wire and extends it to the point where you need it.

You need 2 of them. One for each O2 sensor in each header. Should be around $35 for both I think.

I would also recommend new OEM header gaskets. Might as well throw in new ones while your puttin in new headers.

^^ i agree. stick with GM header gaskets or if you want "the best" get some percy's. and while your at it some stage 8 locking bolts wouldnt hurt.

Don't go SLP LM with LT's/ORY unless you want ungodly loud and raspy. The Magnaflow produces a much more refined and muscular sound.
