This actually isn't for an lt1 at all. My wife drives an 08 malibu and the cat is plugging up causing a low efficiency code. Unfortunately her plates are up by the end of the month and she needs to pass emissions.
The cat is a one piece manifold/cat and a replacement is 600$
So as an alternative I want to guy the cat and reprogram the value for the downstream o2
Any help would be great

What are my options as far as paid software? All I'm finding seems to be awfully expensive...
I've found a few Craigslist postings for handhelds (Matco, snap on) though do the handheld units provide any programmability? Or are they just a data logging tool?

Yeah I'd really like to avoid that, but desperate times call for desperate measures. Bought the car for a steal about a year ago from Craigslist. I'm not sure how the warranty works, I understood its only covered from the original owner, no? Could be wrong..
And there's actually a recall for 09+ cars for early cat failure.. Unfortunately it's 09+
