Default trans cooler and 02 sensor??

Just had a couple of quick questions for you guys?
Planning on installing my new pacesetter long tubes and ory pipe this weekend on my 03 ecsb 5.3 2wd.
Did anyone have to extend their 02 sensor wiring?

Next question
Also i will be installing my new circle d stall at the same time 3-3200
My truck came with the factory tow package and has a external trans cooler.
Should i upgrade to a bigger cooler?
Street truck no towing

Also what size and style clamps are you guys using
For your connection from header to y pipe?
Should i use the clamps that came with the y or buy band clamps? If so what size

Looks like from everything i have read the 02 sensor wiring will reach.

Im going to just use the clamps that came with the new y pipe.

So im down to my trans cooler question?

I have installed several sets of headers on various trucks. I never had to extend the o2 sensor harness.

For the cooler if you have a way to monitor the trans temps i would just watch them for a few days/weeks to see if it gets tooo hot. Or just install a tru cool 40k. That is what i run.

When I put my stall in I ran it with no cooler and my temps were between 170-190. I put in a Hayden 679 and now im at 145-170. It helps alot, especially here in phoenix. Will come in handy when it starts to get in the triple digits.

As said earlier o2s should be fine, I didnt have to extend mine.
