Re: Old Style Cats
Most converters will live at least 80,000 miles (If I'm right, there is now a law that manufacturers MUST warranty them for 80,000 on all new vehicles) and I've seen some pull off 150k miles, but that's as much as you're gonna get. If you live in an area where roads are salted in the winter, chances are it's shot.
