To keep things quiet and not too smelly, I wanna run a cat. The problem is, I'm running a good size cam: 248/254 duration, 582/588 lift, 112 LSA.

I know its gonna run fat down low, where I do most my driving, so it will probably clog up, so I'm probably looking at replacing cat(s) regularly.

If anyone is running a similar combo, what cat(s) are you running and how many miles do they last before they clog up?

 

Why not just a good muffler? Changing CATs is an expensive proposition,isn't it?JMHO

 

I would try it. My cam is way smaller than yours and i haven't plugged my cat up yet. I would just buy used stockers off here you can get them for almost nothing.

 

You can pick up an Ultrasound cat off ebay for about $60, not much more than a muffler.

 

I wouldnt buy a stocker off of here...the majority of them are probably clogged up...

 

I applaud you for wanting to use a cat. If you are really concerned about it getting clogged, then just get a high flow one like a random tech. or something.

 

most of us take them off to run long tubes

 

Just responding to his post...I agree with removing all cats for LT's...

 

I wouldn't buy it off of here, cause you aren't guaranteed to receive it. More and more, we are seeing people get ripped off. Pretty sad.

 

Thats a high duration cam. Is that a custom one? What kind of times do you run with that? Is it streetable?

 

Thanks for the tips. I've seen people clog up Random Tech cats with CC306 cams. I guess I just run one and find out for myself how long it lasts.

Car is not running yet. It's a Comp shelf cam and should be plenty streetable for my needs.

 

You shouldn't have much of a problem if the car is tunned right.

 

Hey 95 Z28: East Lansing eh? Are you a student? E.Lansing is my old stomping ground.

 

Yes I am a student. You have to be careful how hard you "stomp" around here lately or you can end up with some hefty tickets. Don't ask how I know.

 

I stock cat would not be a good idea to run. Not only will it kill power it will clog up super fast. I'm not running a cat on my shorty's and i'm thinking about throwing a cat on when I put my as&m's on. What are some good relatively inexpensive high flow cats?
