I'd like to know this too, I'm working on getting longtubes on my car currently. It's up on jack stands with a couple of bolts out of the manifolds right now. I'm taking my time on it, haha.

For driver side and passenger side both? I saw that you had two on your car, I'm just making 100 % sure since you have a '97 and I have a '95.

Re: O2 extensions on 95 Bird

you could probably get by with 1 on the passenger side. i used both during my install, but i had to wrap the driver side extension around the clutch hyd. line about 3 times to take up the slack. if ya need 1 look on ebay. i got mine there for $16. anywhere else i looked they were $25

I'd get two.. you never know if your harness may be a little shorter than someone else's.

The front O2's on all the LT1's are in the same place, doesn't matter whether it's a 95 or a 97.

Re: O2 extensions on 95 Bird

I would go with two, one for each side. The passenger side definitely needs one, the drivers side can make it without one, but you are really stretching the harness and that prevents you from routing the harness away from "trouble spots" due to the lack of play. A couple of 12" extensions should do the trick.
