O2 sensors keep the motor running correctly. If not, the car will run in open loop the whole time and will run rich.
I believe in order to get away without O2's, you have to turn them off via a chip and tune the car without them. no chip and custom tune then you have to leave them installed and plugged in. if yours is older, then a new set wouldn't be a bad idea.

I bought a set of BOSCH but I had to return them cause on the passenger side the sensor would not go in. I have a Mac O/R H pipe and since the BOSCH sensors are thicker it would hit right up against the AOD and would'nt let it go in straight. Any ideas on how to make that one fit?

I have nothing productive to add!

Bosch are the OEM sensors, they should fit if they are the correct ones and the h-pipe is made correctly.
MAC exhaust systems are poor quality and poor fit. I have a MAC cat H pipe on my stang. The cat converters will not clear the rear crossmember when you have a Tremec 3550 or TKO, and I suspect that it would have the same problem with an AOD.
I know what you mean about the Bosh O2 sensors and clearance problems, mine just barely clear the MAC cat H pipe. The previous set I had were pencil thin and had lots of clearance.
