Default H pipe ???

Hi, I have a 99 with a bad right cat. I've found a couple of H pipes with cats off of lower milage 2002 cars. Does anyone know if they will work on a 99? Some places list 97/99 and 2000/2004. This tells me they're something differant. Anybody tried using 2000+ H pipes on a 97/99? Thanks.

So nobody has attempted this? Can't make up my mind to try and replace the H pipe with later model or just replace the one cat that is bad. Will high flow cats keep fron throwing the 430 code?
Thanks

Not sure if I understand. You want to replace your H-pipe & cats (all 4) w/a later model H-pipe & all 4 cats. Or I should say 2 pups & 2 cats. I think it should work no problems. If that is what your trying to do. If you are keeping the car I would replace the OEM H-pipe & cats w/a new one w/high flow cats & new mufflers. Good luck.
