Default 02 sensor positions

I put in a new engine, again, and Im buttoning things up. Im told that either the front 02's or the rear 02's are swapped....in other words even though the connector up front is say on the passenger side....it is connected to the drivers side 02.
Is this true and is it fronts or backs?

It's not possible to swap the front sensors (using sensor made for the front). There rears are what you are referring to. Since the rear O2's go in at an angle, the wire harness for the left sensor runs down the right side of the tunnel, and vice versa.
