no cats
Alot of you members have posted that you do not have cats. Those of you with the short headers and cat back exhausts did you do the old fashion knock out the insides of cat or have a pipe fabbed to take place of cat?

3 inch pipe welded inside converter case. Looks stock from the outside, plus it flows better (no turbulence) than just a hollowed out shell.

Yea I know it is illegal and won't pass emissions here in Texas. Just curious. It is tempting.

Where can we get converter cases? Are you still passing the 'sniff' test?
Thanks.

I have 133k on these cats. Was thinking of modifing these and buying a set of lower milage ones for backup.
