    You only use an O2 sim on the post-cat sensor.

        you have 3 O2 sensors anyway, so i don't see what difference it makes that they're sold in pairs. :D

        hot dogs are sold in packages of 8 and buns in packages in 6.

          Some places sell them in pairs because LS1s have dual cats, and therefore dual sensors. Us V6ers only need 1. ;)

              get a caspers or nothing. Caspers is the only one that works on a V6

                    lol.. you replace the one after the catalitic converter. The only reason you need a o2 sim is if you install an aftermarket cat or remove the cat

                      what does an 02 sim do? does it even function as an o2 anymore? sounds to me like it is just a fake sensor that no longer monitors air flow, and is just put in there to shut up the SES light.

                            or if your headers suck.
