Default Random Tech cats source?

Where is a good place to buy Random Tech replacement cats? I can't find them in any of my catalogs. I need them for a 95 with OBD II.

Why did you put OBDII on your 95? Here's a link with distributors.

I didn't put the OBDII in it, GM did. The best I can find out, some 20 30 percent of the 95 corvettes came with the OBDII. I took it to my Chevy dealer, and they confirmed that it was OBDII equipped. When I looked up the part numbers for the RT cats, they give a different part number for 95's with OBDII, as opposed to OBDI cars.
Thanks for the sources for the cats, I'm afraid that I'm going to have to replace the pass. side for sure, and I might as well do the driver side too. Not cheap...

Are you going for stock cat replacements? If so don't waste your money, the RT replacement cats are very expensive and don't outflow the stock cats by much...if at all. If you are going for bullet cats it's a completely different story!

Hi.
I have an 85 and want a very high flow cat. Is the difference in flow between bullet cats and normal cats much?
