Default P0430 and headers

I went to autozone today and I have the P0430 code. My only question is that this weekend I'll be installing LT's and do I need to replace the 02's or is it the cats? I will be removing the cats so will I be fine? Here is a scan of the printout I got.

if your deleting the cats the rear 02s wil not matter because they won't be plugged in, there will only be codes. so just go ahead and replace the front 02's... u were asking about the fronts right? since the back will not be in use

No wories. It is widely accepted that the rear o2 sensors have no effect on engine management. Have these codes set to "no report" by someone with tuning software and you're good to go.

Without cats you'll need sims or have the rear 02 codes turned off anyway. P0430 is the passenger side cat.

Yeah I was asking if I should just go ahead and replace the front 02's. I will have o2 sims on there once I get the headers on. And does anyone know a good place to get a set of header bolts??

Stage 8 locking header bolts. Many of the sponsors sell them.

A number of people think that most aftermarket o2 sensors suck compared to the OEM. I wouldn't bother replacing them if they are working OEM sensors.
