Hey guys, what I want to do is ditch the cat converter, then run 2.5" back from the factory Y pipe. Do a 1 in/2 out muffler, and put the tips out behind the rear tires. I told this to the exhaust shop but they said they have to leave the Cat Converter. Is that true on a 25 year old truck? It will be registered in FL like the rest of my cars, so no emissions checks or state inspections but he said that doesn't matter.
So I was just wondering if the option to remove it is there, or do I have to leave it like he says.
If so, can I have him make sure that it's placed in a section of straight pipe, then just remove it myself and clamp some straight pipe in that section.
Man I wish I had some who could teach me to weld.

A repair shop can not remove any emissions equipment but you as the owner can do what ever you want.

What if I removed it, then took it in to have them repair the damaged section by welding in straight pipe?
this is how I duz it here in Fl. they cant remove it but if one is not there when they go to pipe it///they do not have to install one.

As I see it it's just another perk of living in Florida.

I would buy a mid pipe for an 85 1 ton with a 360. Look at the Walker exhaust web site. They have pictures of all parts. No need to weld this on... it just clamps in place like the original.

I know that fed law would not let you remove them.It used to be up to a 10K fine and 6 months in jail.Feds were heavy into prosecution years ago.The shops that I worked at would not touch a system if the convertor wasnt there.The feds back in the 80s and 90s actually sent people out to see if shops would eliminate them.They used to sell what was called a "Test Pipe".It was supposed to replace the convertor to see if it was clogged.Everyone knew they were just used to eliminate them.You dont want to know how many of my trucks didnt have a convertor.But I did mine myself.Rocky

I've looked and can't find it on the site. Maybe it's just me. I would definitely like to find this part if it'll let me bolt it in myself.

The walker part number is 45951. I have not bought this part in a few years but a quick search on google had many to choose from. Jegs $44.99, Summit $39.97, And Rock auto said in was stocked in an outlying warehouse and would ship in one day $40.79.

Did you actually call and confirm it was in Stock and they can get it? I was refunded my money through Advance Auto as it was discontinued and Rockauto Cant get it either. That means Nobody can.
Go back type in your Zip code and refresh it this is what pops up
