Why is there such a big Price Difference between those two. AZ and napa where selling OBII CATS for f bodies for 100 dollars and the Dealer was selling them for 550. That is really confusing and they are both for that same car. No confusion both where OBII CATS i am just really confused.

There are GM dealers that will sell f-body cats for much less than $550 but not as low as $100. A dealer that asks very high prices for parts doesn't really want to sell parts. Most dealerships are not organized to efficiently sell parts at low cost – parts are not their primary business. Autozone and Napa are parts distributors – that is their primary business. They exist because they are able to provide parts at lower than dealer prices.
