    I wanna help you for sure, but it is not the stuff I usually work on. I found these links, but the reference number I see on the pictures doesn't work and I don't know on what vehicle it was installed. In the worst case, ask a quote to rrcats and they will probably give you a better idea.

    NEW TO SCRAPPING? READ THIS: Build up your horde of magnetic and non-magnetic metals in two piles until you have a better understanding of the business. Magnetic material has low value and is mostly always steel / shred / short iron. Read old threads about non-magnetic metals and ewaste (and how to sort them), but don't forget that they generally have absolutely no tolerance for contamination (screw / iron / foreign material).

    Not much use to you here Mike. I can't tell a resonator from a cat. Maybe the guys at the yard will have some idea.

    I may be mistaken, but i believe that APA posted sometime in the last month or two. He said that he would continue on with his established customers but that he wasn't taking on any new ones ?

    He might have chosen to pull his buyers thread. It would make sense if he were no longer seeking new customers.

    Again though ... i could be wrong. If so ... my deepest apologies. He's done an outstanding job over the years.

    APA posted this on 9-2-2022.....

    To all my friends and members of the scrapmetalforum, as of August 2, 2022, I will no longer be giving out free quotes.
    If you have sold me converters in the past, I will respond and we can continue business. All other messages will not be responded to. Thank you.

    Mike,
    Those are rear cats from a newer Vette. They are foil type converters. $45 each.
