Default p0178 code in an LM7 swap

Hey guys I swapped a 02 LM7 into a 82 C10 all going sweet throws a couple codes up 2 are for the rear o2;s which is fine as they have been removed but the other is the fuel composition sensor circuit low voltage , I feel a little stupid asking & did search but would I even have this sensor ? would it not normally be i the fuel lines? If so does it matter with the pcm adjust anything due to this & I should have it tuned out of the PCM cheers

are you sure you swapped an LM7 and not an L59? They are identical except for the injectors and fuel pressure regulator, but the L59 came with flex fuel compatibility in the tune. And yes, they had them in 2002.

That said the codes shouldn't hurt anything and if its running well and making power, dont worry about it.
