Default removing header heatsheild?

Is there any cons to just removing the header heatsheilds with the stock headers staying on?

You shouldn't have anything to worry about. Most headers don't use heatshields anyway.

why would you need to take the heatshield off to get to the oxygen sensor? anyway if youre replacing the header tmorrow anyway what would be the difference in having it off the stock on anyway.
