driving the car with open headers reply!!!!
Wait, you have no collectors? lol.
The collector is where the 4 primaries merge to form one larger end.
Its slip fit if it is just plain and straight, its flanged if it has a big piece on the end with usually 3 holes for your nuts and bolts...
Don't worry about 30 min for putting on some extra piping, go WOT a few times, get a headache and enjoy =)

Like everybody else said for just that short trip you'll be fine. If you really wanted to you could clamp some piping on after the collectors, but probably not necessary for one trip. There is a chance of screwing up the O2s but its not real high.
Man I came into my neighborhood once at like midnight with open headers. Tried to keep it as "quiet" as possible. I felt like such a dick but at least it was only once

I drove mine around for a couple of days with about 14" of 3" pipe on the Headers when I first installed my 408..I had them pointing out to the sides. That **** sounded richeous..
I passed 2 cops that were sitting at a gas station as I was going to a friends house..they both gave me a thumbs up..lol
As long as you aren't being stupid you'll be fine.

It wont hurt the valves but the damn thing may barly run by the time you run 30 miles on it like that. The O2's are going to be toasted. I had the fuse blow on my O2's last week and the damn thing just died everytime I got off the gas. You can chance it but Plan on new O2's
