Some guys like to be a little above 900, but 800-900 is very good. You are right where you want to be, so I would keep the settings you have.

880 is supposed to be perfect.

Well the corvette manual says that it should be like 450 and it seems to me to be running real rich

Is this WOT or normal closed loop driving?

The numbers that I refer to are at WOT. I don't know what good idle numbers would be.

At WOT the 800-900 range is good..
Here's an example.. please disregard some of the readings (AFR, MAF Hz, Knock, and a couple others as this is an LS1 program used on an LT1).

This is a WOT reading at 119mph. Look at the top graph and the top right numbers for O2 readings



..and here's a look at O2 readings at 70mph cruise... notice that they jump around constantly... That's a sign that they're working well.

At normal driving in closed loop the O2 sensor voltage is suposed to cycle back and forth between 100 and 900 (looks like a roller coster) If it stuck at 800-900 there is something wrong or the O2 is getting heated enought to get into closed loop.

Are you sure you have heated O2s? 93s came with 2 single wire O2s. If you have converted to heated units, were do you have the power lines run? :crazy:

At idle a Autoxray scan tool read my drvier side sensor reading was bouncing up and down from around 100 - 800 that's normal. The passenger side sensor was flat lined at .010, that indicated it was not functioning Low Voltage circuit condition.
