Default Catalytic Coverter Question.

I'm pretty sure I need a new cat, the one thats on there now smells like fuel and is probably the source of the rattling I hear, even though it was put on a year ago. I changed the 02 sensors, but probably too late, damage already done to the cat.

Anyways, does anyone know where I can find a 1994 cheap single cat that will pass california smog? All the ones I have found while looking are $200-$300, where are the $60 cats I remember reading about? I have JBA shorties with a ceramic coated y-pipe, how come I see on some it looks like it comes with a new y-pipe??

Edit: just found this:

http://www.magnaflowcatalyticconvert...tion=0&page=35

this site legit? If so, I'm going for the $78 universal fit CA converter

Yea that magnaflow cat will work. I thought I read somewhere that this beautiful state passed a law the beginning of this year saying that websites can no longer sell highflow cats to Cali. Dont quote me though, maybe someone else will chime in.

The 5th one down on your link 94009 is the one I ran and past emissions with 2 different times. Worked great.
