why me !!!
7:00 am I turn my truck on to go to work and my engine sounded loud. Reminded me of my 1964 Catalina. Can't be the temp, its only around 47 this morning, so I decided to look under my V10 truck and see my exhaust is cut like under passenger side door all to way to rear passenger. Why would someone do that. Seems that they wanted the cat conv. Did not know they were a hot item. I'm thinking of just welding a straight pipe since I don't have to worry about emission.

The catalyst itself is most often a mix of precious metals, mostly from the platinum group. Platinum is the most active catalyst and is widely used, but is not suitable for all applications because of unwanted additional reactions and high cost. Palladium and rhodium are two other precious metals used. Rhodium is used as a reduction catalyst, palladium is used as an oxidation catalyst, and platinum is used both for reduction and oxidation.
