It is because you now have no cats.
You can get O2 simulators or you can get the code tuned out.

It won't hurt anything.

Those sensors tell you if you have a failing cat or not. Obviously you don't have cats anymore so the sensor is going to think that the cat is screwed up.

No, it won't hurt a thing. Basically your car is throwing codes saying that your catalyst efficiency is below threshold, duh, you have no cats. Its no big deal. The o2 simulators are little plugs that you can plug into the rear o2 connections that will simulate having cats and rear o2's - no codes. You will have to leave the o2's plugged in to fill the hole, or I have heard you can plug them with oil drain plugs for a certain car.

I am trying to go with the sleeper look with a 224 cam and supporting valvetrain. Yes i know i will make more power with headers, but i don't want them period.

Don't worry about. Everyone has to learn sometime.

Sounds like a good setup to me.

Sleeper, sneaky sneaky, make sure you get the 114 LSA on that cam. If you wanted something other than stock manifolds but remain smog leagal, Edelbrock shorties would help with plug access, they look better and would provide marginal gains. You can also get a SLP y-pipe and an electric cutout.

The plan I had long ago was:
243's, TR224 cam, SLP lid, ported TB, LS6 intake mani, Edelbrock shorties, SLP Y-pipe, electric cutout. Should be good for maybe 370-380rwhp.

A TR224 on a 112 will still lope slightly, if you want to be stealthy, go with a 114 LSA, plus you have a better shot at passing smog.

You need O2 sims. You can usually find used one's pretty cheap.
