This probably isn't where this thread goes, but I know that more people have done LT's and seen factory catalytic converters that are in this section.
My car is a 98 and I just got done installing LT's. I was going to sale my catalytic converters to recoup some cash and was told they are aftermarket. Now, I was thinking that 98-99 had different shaped converters than a 00-02 because of the exhaust manifolds being a little different. Of course this is just stuff i've read on here in the past.
Everything I pulled off the car looked like it was original, but looks to me like the dates stamped on the converters are surely after 1998. Wonder if they were replaced by GM under a warranty or what?
Here are some pics, tell me about these catalytic converters

I don't even know of a scrap yard anywhere close to me. Towns close to me suck though. You gotta drive atleast an hour or more to get to a real town. You can't even get a band clamp here...sad... I just do everything online. Cheaper and easier in the long run. I want to get a cam when tax time comes and i'm scared to because I just don't know where to get my car tuned at. A bad tune can ruin everything about your car and I don't wanna be stuck with a bucking, shittin, stallin, dying car.
