You called them "true duels." To me that means a complete duel exhaust system,
independent from each other
from the headers back, just like the good ol' days. Which would obviously require having two Cats, which we didn't have in the good ol' days.
I didn't think it was legal to change anything unless the Cat was defective, but
I'm not an expert on this.
Will this involve any problems with O2 sensors, and how this info from 2 Cats
feeds into the
computer?

And can you show me and others where it says it can't be driven? Specifically to the acutal law on the books, federal or state??
BTW, sweet truck.

The truck was built to get the most gains as possible and since I don't live in California or a state that requires a emission test I decided to take my chances especially when Mustangs, Camaro's, and many other cars that have been modded are running off-road x or h pipes frequently.
