Cam Positioning Sensors ?

Just a quick ?
My idiot light came on and the scanner read Cam Position Sensor.
about 94k on the clock
I am going to change both as they are OEM
AC Delco the way to go ?
Or any better brand ?
Thanks

It’s been said on this forum a thousand times:
“POST THE CODE NUMBERS. NOT the description”

Also. Year, model and engine size would help.

P0016 or P0017 means timing chain, they both mention "sensor" in the title. P0010 P0011,P0013 and P0014 usually mean to replace the VVT valves.
