Default O2 "simulators" for a 96 LT1 (who sells em'?)

Who sells O2 simulators for a 96 which has the 2nd set of O2 sensors AFTER the cats in the OBD2 system.

Just in case someone wanted to run there car in "off-road" use only, but replace the cats and sensors for emissions inspection time.

Do these "simulators" work? (as in no SYS codes flashing!)

Thanks,

I have a set I'll sell you, fit the 96 Vette and keep the SES light off if the rear O2 are "missing". $70 including shipping.

Eric, I'll keep it in mind, I'm still trying to research this idea further.
(gutted cats) (state emmissions inspector-> :eek: )(me-> :lol: )
Really we only get tested every two years in Missouri, and I'm up in June this year, so any mods could stay for 2 years then swap back to stock.

Anybody else using these?

If your state emissions test requires the rollers (IM240) you have to have cats to pass. OTOH, here in the Chicago area, they are now only scanning OBDII cars to check for codes. If you don't set any codes, they don't know there's no cats. So 96 and later can actually run without cats, pre 96 will have to have them.

In St. Louis, we have punk kids drive our Vettes on "rollers", kinda like a dyno machine. And it is the IM240 program. I here some places have dropped this program (IM240) due to all the problems.
