Issues replacing stock Cat with perf Cat

89 F250, 460/7.5, 4x4, C6 Auto

Okay, I need to put on my high flow Cat. The stock exhaust and stock Cat connect via a 4-bot housing. Two pipes come from the manifolds (replacing with headers during this project) and my new Cat has ONE 2.5" intake and exit.

Suggestions how to connect the new Cat? A Y pipe?

Get a Y-pipe, or sell your cat and get one with dual outlets.

I'm getting the right Cat, returning the one I have.
My cat-back splits to dual pipes again after the cat.
I should be good to go when the new cat arrives.
I should've checked all this before I started, oops, oh well, live and learn.
