    No prob!

    She passed!!! Bit high on HC at idle still. Limit 200, I hit 183.
    So I still think something is up.
    I am wondering if one or both cats are toast?

    I have test pipes, probably put those on over the winter and get new cats in a couple years. Local place will do magnaflow cats all flanged up ready to bolt in for about 5-600 which is pretty good!

    Glad to know that your 348 is running fine, Rob.

    I installed Magnaflow cats in my 348 and they are working great; low emissions, high power and a very nice sound for a good price. They are metal core 200 cells high flow cats.

    Thanks! I see you checked my pics for a part number and the NAPA label ;)

    My HCs where initially over 1500 at idle.

    Would you have part numbers for coolant sensors in hand?
    I think I'll need those as well... :)
