Just because its been on doesn't mean you don't have others that have popped up. Check them yourself or run to autozone

2 codes...p0135 a/f sensor p1122 thro. pos. sensor...guessing they prolly have to do with bad idle...also tho my buddy said after i put in my itr cams my timing could be off causing it....but we will se after i replace sensors

^ what? You're going to replace the physical sensors? That's not how you fix sensors. They could be bad, but sensors go off when something is wrong in the car, they are much more unlikely to go bad. Find out WHAT is making the sensors go off. And yes, your timing could be off. Check it with a timing light.
