Catalytic converter options?

Post by Eddystone »

1998 V70 NON-turbo automatic

My catalytic converter is coming apart at the back end due to age and rust. I've temporarily patched it with some stuff that may be stronger than the original metal, BUT I think I will need to replace the converter. I have a complete exhaust system from the converter back.

What have people found that can be used as a replacement without too much customization?
1998 V70 Non-Turbo/Auto The Perfect Driving Appliance
1993 945 Turbo/Auto Pickemup Truck that Will Not Die. New 960 seats!
1999 S70 T5 Turbo/Auto which is better than Abscate's T5
All U.S. market models.
All running and on the road.
PM me if you are in Ohio. I'm in Lorain.
