I dont believe this is possible as there will be no place for efficient secondary combustion to tak place.

No.
Leave the stove alone. Is it a newer Dutchwest Catalytic or one of the old Taiwan made units?

And my question would be "why would you want to?" Using a cat stove effectively is a very efficient, cost effective, and non-polluting way to burn wood.dakotarnk said:

According to my VC manuals, it is a violation of Federal EPA regs to burn the stove without the CAT or with it disabled.
