I have seen that AC Delco or Bosch 02 sensors are listed for LT5's, however they are not readily available.

Cross referrencing the part numbers I can get NGK 02 sensors instead.

Anyone out there throw any experience into using other makes of 02 sensors ?

cheers

Spoke to a couple of owners today at the vette nationals, who said they read the thread but were not sure about the NGK lambda sensors.

Fitted the NGK (NTK) OZA446-E8 before the weekend and had a couple of trips, including Luton return, for them to settle into the system. They appear to be doing their job with no problems, or service engine light issues. They price quite reasonable too at around £54 each.

Yes Dave, the connector is the same. Another important part is the sensors have to be THREE wires.

Needed to run the car with the new 02 sensors and wanted to have a last car day before Autumn sets in. Had an idea the rain would get worse by 3pm. Turned out ok in the end Dave.
