I beleive there was a notice sent out to the owners of '00-02 LS1 F-bodies that the cat warranty was extended to 10/100,000. But that was only on the '00-02 cats since they seem to have a defect issue. '98-'99 are different.

You can try a search on this here for more details, I saw quite a few threads posted about this a little while back.

I got a letter from GM in Dec 06 that for my model year (2000) that because there have been failures of the left or right converter that the warranty for the converters has been extended to ten years from date of purchase of the car or 120,000 miles. The converters will be repaired free of charge.
