You should get o2 simulators, ive seen them on Ebay before, they send back the correct amount of voltage to the computer, basically "tricking" the computer into thinking a Cat is there. I dont know if those really work or not Ive not had any experience with them, but my friend put those on his car that should have a Cat and it runs perfect, just a thought.

I know this is a late response to the red headers but ive always thought it meant there was too much oxegyn in your mixture.

the crankshaft postion sensor is mounted on the passenger side of the transmission bell housing. it reads some grooves on the flywheel.
the camshaft position sensor is inside the distributor.
