    You won't like it when you'll be replacing those craptastic gaskets in about a month after they blow out. Should have used your factory ones or just bought GM Metal ones.

    I used the metal GM ones... But also used the ones that came with them too. Stacked them.. I feel good about it but hey you never know. If they blow out it will give me a reason to hide in the garage for a few hours..

    Would running off of the only only the rear o2 have any effect on mpg if there is no cat?

    Also what would i do with the front o2 sensor? Wrap it up or something

    the rear o2 sensor doesnt do any work. you cannot run the car off it.

    What do you mean "wrap it up". The front o2 is what matters...if you want to make your car run like a pile of junk....then leave it out

    I don't know i wasn't thinking very clearly apparently.

    The rear o2 just monitors the efficiency of the cat and produces that annoying dtc.

    I guess the best thing to do with these headers is to get a new bung welded in. About how much does this cost?

    I might as well put the rear o2 back in even without a cat right?


    Thanks
