Look at a magnaflow 93302. It comes with a cat and it's stainless steel and it's just over $200.00. You would need to add your own muffler and a turnout pipe from the auto parts store is all.

Try cutting the old one out and welding a new one in.

UNIVERSAL CATALYTIC CONVERTER : JC Whitney: Auto Parts & Accessories

That one is $60. Just because you aren't required to have one, doesn't mean you shouldn't. They really do help.

A lot of people also don't like the sound of the 300 without them.

Do a search on Summit Racing...several less expensive Cats listed or try www.bearriverconverters.com. They advertise on this site.

As far as what you need, get a measuring tape and note book, crawl under it and get 'er done.
