1984 corvette
My muffler fell off so we pulled other one.
Y pipe is in bad shape but with no mufflers you would think would be really loud
but it isn't
thinking cat is clogging up
after running car over a week with no mufflers she decided
to loose power.
were thinking catalytic converter instead clogging up.
Was thinking of just pulling cat n put test pipe but heard
you can clean catalytic converter s out.
any Ideas

Yes it can be but I don't recommend it I recommend replacement of it with a suitable Performance Cat that should be out there to avoid any problems with Vehicle Inspection problems if your state has such a thing. If you don,t have inspections well than find a Cat delete pipe or build/find a custom Exhaust, but the Cat you have now is full of a very Nasty Heavy metal compound and it wont do your health or the environment any good being polluted with that stuff, and doesn't come out easy.
I have heard that Metal Recycle rs will even pay for old Cat Converters

George, I've seen you do multi-posts of same or very similar questions a few times now--the reason this bugs people (especially those who try to help) is that there's no continuous record of your problem & the steps you've actually tried in order to rectify it. People chime in with solid advice, and we never find out whether you followed or ignored it. It feels like a waste of time starting from scratch just so you can second guess the wording of your question...sorry!
