Default Catalytic Converter Replacement

I'm pretty sure that my Cats are rattling on my '94 LT-1 and am asking what the preferred go to replacement is...preferably a direct bolt on that requires no modification.

What is the replacement Cat and the source for same?

Thanks

See if Random Technologies has your direct fit. They did for me and there wasn't much work to be done once I got it.

Is RT still in business? I've tried their web site several times and I get a "not found" I have their bullet cats on 95.

Last Facebook entry was 6 months ago. Not sure. Their number is disconnected. Guess they closed.

I don't care about the emissions but I did and went back to the single cat because it was noisy. The single cat did bring down the noise a little

I would try a corvette recycler for used. NOS would be hard to find. Aftermarket will likely involved cutting old cats out and welding new ones in. If you still have stock exhaust, it may require some work to fit new cats.
