So?  Put in a hollowed out "converter", it's only a visual inspection. 
Even in my state, where you MUST pass emissions tests, I have had
hollowed out cats for the last decade and a half or so.  On the old 5KS,
I only passed emissions after gutting the kitty.  Go figure.
One free flow under a buck after market cat and you're done.  I don't see
a problem, maybe a good opportunity to pick up a 20V cheap?  This isn't a
deal breaker in my book.

The dealer price, thanks for the chuckle Roger!  ;-O
