$1300 bucks for a new Catalytic Converter????

But I would pull all that junk off. It costs power and as you said gets in the way. Easier to sell and buy another 82 in Ca. It's not like the 82 was a special model.

THIS '82 IS special - It was purchased new by my then brother-in-law, sold to my other (now deceased) brother-in-law, before coming into my ex-wife's possession. It's sentimental value far outweighs it's monetary value, which is why I am willing to GIVE it back to him --free! All he has to do is pay to ship it back to Cali. I might just re-install the original intake and exhaust since I don't drive it much anymore, and the headers and dual exhaust tips are both rusting externally. (sorry for the thread jack.)

Oh, yeah, the 1982 model was the first to have the 5.0 HO engine - The slogan that year -- "The BOSS is back!"
