thats what we are trying to start doing now, we are losing some of our fast cash but i think the long term results for the bottom line is for the best

up until recently we just took the battery, radiator, alternator and cat and aluminum wheels if they were there, the fast flip. we are set up with rascore now getting ready to send in our first tote. we have pulled a few motors the last couple weeks and have never done that, just crushed them till this point, anyway live and learn

Sweet! Practically like headers sort of, kinda eh. And the most throaty and way muscular type, macho sound'n downshifts, that a man could ever hear. Especially, if your of the double clutch crowd. Thanx 4 the flash backs dude! Nice custom wrench'n there friend. lb

Lol yup, bin there & done that a couple of times. Don't make me like 'em much with that smart-azzed attitude...I understand the truth in the line but the smugness, holier than thou crap that goes with it, bites! Thanx for sharing that with us F'nRedneck. lb

Yes sir, nice straight shoot'n, hard-core and very useful data bytes there Cgraz! Thanx! lb

More power info! Thanx buddy! lb

Some other ways to recognize an aftermarket cat besides the welds:

They might be marked with flow, top, catco or an arrow. Car companies know which way the cat should go on, they don't need markings.

The majority of aftermarkets I come across also have a lot shinier heat shield.

actually they do care, their sheets they dont buy motors or transmissions, what they do take is air sensors, window motors, calipers, wiper motors, steering racks, computers. i have still not sent anything in but ive got a few computers at 60 to 70 and steering gear racks for 60 to 70, keep in mind they dont buy all of them and some they dont pay enough to go thru the trouble, its easy to use you can go through the make and model or you can type in the vin(this option gives you your cars weight) alot of the calipers go for 8 bucks a piece(tho some are only 1) just depends on the car. i pulled a rear wiper motor today $20 took about 5minutes
