As long as the catalytic converter is still on, you don't have to worry about the valves. The problem you run into with lack of backpressure is the engine "suckin" up cold air and that cold air hitting the valves which can cause them to warp. This is really only an issue if you're doing something extreme like running straight out of the headers or something.
with what i have done (muffler cut off), and being my truck is a 95 should i be expecting to have to put a muffler back on to pass inspection?
