Cat Questions
I have a 1989 F-150(been sitting for a year) that I would like to take a cat off of and transplant the cat on my 1988 Bronco. The F-150 passed emissions last time it was tested(2 years ago) I was wondering if it sitting for year would hurt the cat or not. I have a project(dual exhaust on my Bronco) and I need a second cat. Is there any reason why that cat won't work???? Now for another question, with my dual exhaust project I would like to do it for as cheap as possible(the reason I want to use that cat from the truck), I found some univiseral cats at PepBoys for $80 they don't have an air hole though, If the one out of the truck don't work will it be a problem to use a universal from PepBoys???

ebay my friend
Try a search on ebay. I got a carsound universal cat for under $50.00 shipped to my door. The guy has hundreds of them. Magnaflow makes these and sells them as carsound.

Thanks Pat,
If it comes down to me having to buy a new one I will check Ebay out, althought I am always leary of buying from anyone on Ebay.
I would like to get away with using the cat off of my old truck and transplant it to my Bronco, but I am not sure if it will work OK or not, we have emission testing here in Ohio and the cats HAVE TO work.

Wolfman,
I can think of no mechanical or chemical reasons the cat shouldn't be just fine if it was just fine when it was parked.
I'm also thinking you have very little to loose by giving it a try - first.
FWIW.
