Catalytic converter compatibility question Will the passenger side cat for 2000-2002 f bodies bolt up to a 1998 exhaust manifold? I plan on buying the Hooker Blackheart 50 state cat-back dual exhaust and would rather have everything bolt together instead of welding the passenger side cat on. Here are the installation directions so you can see what I'm talking about.

Should bolt up but I can't confirm that for you, are you trying to stay 50 state legal? because fitting a newer style cat on your 98/99 exhaust will not be emissions legal. It's likely a shop will not notice it, but in that case you can swap in some 00-02 exhaust manifolds and pickup a couple extra HP in the process and still look completely stock.
