Default Exhaust question

Good afternoon, I have an LT1, not LS1, but am hoping there is an exhaust expert here who can answer this question. My catalytic converter is plugged. I found what appears to be a one for one replacement on RockAuto, DAVICO, part number 15444. Looking at the price, $260, seems to good to be true to get a CC and the plumbing as well. Thoughts? I'm looking to save money, but this sets off a few alarm bells. Thanks,

Only thing wrong with Rockauto is that you can't have it today.

that is true. BUT usually they ship the same day you purchase. and you can always pay extra for 2 day shipping. Most of the time I'll get the parts within 2-4 days from ground shipping.

Yep..If you're not needing it right away then Rockauto is the way to go. I have a friend who just purchased new upper control arm bushings and ball joints from a local parts store. I was able to order Moog uper A-arms with the bushings and ball joints installed for about what he paid for just the ball joints. These local parts stores are raking people over the coals with the markup on parts. He was so stunned when I told him what I could get the parts for he had me order the lowers for him too.
