Default Oxygen Sensor Wire Switch

I've looked at a lot of posts on going to Bosch 13111 sensors, etc etc when you get LTs installed.

Why not... go to OEM (Delco/Denso?) I think thats what it is...

And THEN, switch the wires in the PCM, from front to rear, and rear to front. So you take your o2s plugged in the LTs, connect them to the REAR sensor plugs, then switch the wires going into the PCM. Would this work? I mean, maybe splicing into your PCM isnt the GREATEST idea, but I know in the world of Ricers, every piggy-back controller is normally spliced into the PCM.

Would this allow us to run OEM sensors, with OEM length wire, no splicing the wires, and just changing whats going into the PCM?

Correct me if I'm wrong, just an idea.

If I understand your post, you want to use the rear O2 wiring for the O2 sensors in your long tubes. Not an uncommon practice, but normally you'd disable the rear O2's in the PCM and pull the front wiring, then put the rear O2 wiring in its place in the PCM plug
