Default Running car with NO o2s?

I'm finishing up a header install and notice that the person who welded my o2 bungs did it in the wrong spot, I could beat in the floor boards (not likely) or try and run the car with no o2s for a day or so.

Can the car run with no o2s? Will anything totally damaging occur? Greatful for all help, and any answers ASAP.

car runs without o2's every time you start it while it waits for them to warm up. Youll be okay, but you may stilll want to plug up those bungs.
