when i bought my new o2 sensors(bosch) the wiring from plugin to plugin was really long to accomadate for longtubes.mine could reach the tranny cross member almost i dont know there long though.

And i thought they made extensions or i dont see why u couldnt splice in the amount of wire u need

go to an autopart store and ask for O2 sensors with longer wires.

when I worked at advance, we sold them with 8.5" 11" and 13.5" leads
