My cats are shot on my '88 so I am going to cut them out and weld in pipe. My question is if I have to use O2 sims or will I not have to worry on this old a car?

You will have to worry, you're engine management system relies on those O2 sensors to run the engine correctly.

You maybe able to find simulators but, I would just replace them. And if you do replace them your gas mileage will improve.
