Actually, if you took it off, your engine would run better, as a minor hindrance is out of the way. BUT, a 78 Chevy is not required in Texas to have a converter on. Check with your state laws to see if it is illegal or not for a 78 Chevy to not have a converter now.
After you do that, then if you want POWER, shop and ask around and install some headers. basically, they are pipes with bigger diameter to allow more air out, therefore more power. That is an explanation in a nutshell now.
