you will be good as long as your O2 sensor is before the section where you removed the pipe

will there be better gains that way in hp I mean. I ran it with the spipe before but not from the downpipe. Last question , how far from the oil pan should the downpipe actually be ?

I dont know what the performance gains are on these cars. But I did do some dyno tuning on a fox body mustang with a 347 stroker that had electric cut outs, and had 15-20hp increase with the dumps open.

running an open 2.5" or 3" spipe isnt much different then running open downpipe.. id rather run open spipe because the downpipe will cook the oil pan.
