93 Z28 Will I benifit from Heated O2 swap?

In my LT1 swapped 90 RS would I benefit from swapping from my 1 wire O2s to the heated 4 wire O2's. The motor is from a 93 and has mods if it matters. What are the benefits to doing this? My friend thinks it would be a good idea but I am not sure as to why I would benefit so I figured I would ask you guys.

If you're not having any problems getting readings from the single wire O2's, then I dont see how heated ones would make any difference.

With shorty headers you're probably fine with the single wire O2's. The car will probably go into closed loop faster with the heated units but aside from that I dont see it benifiting you any.

FWIW I only converted my car to Heated O2's because of the longtube headers and even then I had problems.
