dead cats

[Mike Arman]

Question - on a 1990 car, do we even NEED the catalytic converters? These things are way out of 
warranty, and greatly exceed the federally mandated 5 year/50,000 mile "gotta meet emissions" rules.

If your state doesn't do an emissions test, you'd be legal with plain old exhaust tubing as a 
replacement, with a bung welded on for the oxygen sensor.

There are so few 1990 V8Qs still running around that if every one of them removed the cats, it 
wouldn't make a measurable difference in air quality. (I know, I know, no single raindrop thinks it 
is responsible for the deluge.)

Please withhold my name by request, I have to go pull the wings off kittens or something equally 
politically incorrect, and prefer not to be disturbed.

Best Regards

I wasn't here, this conversation never took place.
