You will gain a headache when it comes to inspection/emmisions testing time...if you have them. |

Re: removing cat on a 4.3 vortec
number one if you remove the cat it will throw a code and turn the ses light on. number two it will run just fine, i cut my cats off and my truck ran perfectly fine if not a little better just order a pcm form wait4me performance with the rear o2 deleted.

Re: removing cat on a 4.3 vortec
Removing your cat isn't worth it if you ask me. You might gain a couple horsepower, but if you ever get ticketed for it, at least around here, it's about 85 dollars. You could've spent that on something better that would've given your truck better gains and didn't make it smell (I know there will be some claiming it doesn't make it smell, but whatever).

Re: removing cat on a 4.3 vortec
I still have a cat on my tu2, or so it looks. I have no inspection. I don't remember the name of the spacer, I got it from here.
wait, it's something like this but not quite. http://forums.evolutionm.net/showthread.php?t=215795 |
