Question Headers, and True dual

I just recently bought a set of blackjack headers, and a hooker exhaust kit. Does anyone have any ideas of the troubles i could run into by droping the cats, and putting the O2 sensor on the collector, and if i have troubles, how could i fix them.
Any help or suggestions would be great, and appreitated.]


Thanks John.

Headers, and True dual

it all depends what year of truck ypu are talking about, if it is a Mass Air truck with the OBD II computer than you have to get a some O2 foolers (check summit racing) but you want to keep the egr valve on your engine, if you remove it your engine will run hot or somthing like that, since you got long tube headers i am guessing that it did not come with a EGR hookup, what size engine are you running? if its a 5.8 you are going to have to have someone weld a bung onto the numberone cylinder pipe for the egr hookup. since you are not running cats, you mitas well get rid of the rest of the emisson control crap off of your engine, remove the smog pum, all its hoses, plug the holes in the back of the heads, remove the the canisters and stuf, you should be fine with just blocking off the remaining emission vacume hoses.
