if i have long tube headers with no cats is there a way to turn off the ses or does it just stay on?

 

stays on...you can have your computer tuned to get rid of the light

 

but wont it just turn on again once it resets

 

It's not going to turn off unless you install some O2 sims or do the cheap O2 mod to trick them. You can also get it tuned out, but that's the expensive way to get it off.

 

so how would i trick them?

 

If you still have bungs you can put them in you can get some spark plug nonfoulers and screw those in the actual bung in the exhaust pipe and then screw the O2 sensor into that. If you're handy with a soldering iron and have bungs you can put them in you can install a series resistor and a parallel capacitor to drop the voltage output and trick the computer that way. If you don't have bungs you can buy actual O2 sims or get some bungs welded in.
