IM not sure on your dodge but a trick we would use when replacing the manifold/cat combo on the e36 BWM,s was to extend the o2 sensor bung so that it pulled the o2 senor up out of the exhaust flow path. This would result in the sensor being exposed to less exhaust gas and in most cases we could run new headers without the CEL being triggered.

There are ways to do it, but they will not conform to emissions laws in most states. I'd say just leave it in there and work around it to keep yourself from having problems down the road.
