Question Any ideas for my exhaust problem??

I have a 97 lt1 z28. One of my cats right before the y-pipe is loose on the inside. I was quoted $600 for a new one to get rid of the rattle. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas that would work to get rid of it and still keep it legal. Does anyone know where i can get a used one for less than $600? Please let me know!

Check ebay, or some of the sponsors, they usually have cats (at far less than $600)

gut it and get the ses light tuned out. as long s they don't put the sniffer up to your tail pipe..they can't prove..and if you do fail emissions..it would be because of fault cats....not for not having cats.
