What are cats when talking about exhaust.
Well I have a 1994 Chevy Camaro V6 3.4L Car. I am thinking of getting a 93-97 z28 muffler for this car because those are all made the same and I figured I would get one the same year as my car. Well anyway what I was thinking of getting was either trying to find a used z28 muffler or looking on the Internet for a new one. I was told that I will need the tail pipes also but will I need the original tail pipes made for the z28 exhaust or can I have a shop make a new set of them then Install that while getting hangers for this also or once again will I need the normal z28 ones. Well anyway that was my first question If you have any Information about putting a z28 muffler on a v6 camaro leave your feedback etc. My second question Is what are cats. I hear about this alot but not sure If this Is something I should be looking Into or what they do exactly. Basically the reason why I am replacing my muffler Is because the current one Is rusting also has a small crack on the muffler but the second reason why I am replacing Is because I want a muscle type sound for my car that Isnt raspy like a flowmaster etc I heard from multiple people on hear that the best thing for this would be get a z28 muffler for my v6. Thanks.

Well my first advice to you is to try and keep the amount of threads for the same question to a minimum. When speaking on exhaust systems, a cat is a catalytic converter. If you still have yours, it should be on the passenger side of the car behind the front tire after your y pipe. Some people remove the cat for a difference in sound, ect. If there's nothing wrong with it, I'd leave it be. If you bring the car to a shop they can weld the z28 muffler right up to your stock pipes. You may need tail pipes (that exit the muffler) but the muffler I found had both tailpipes still on it, which if you get it used, is usually the case.

You can purchase a new Walker stock type Z28 muffler from Rock Auto for about Z$28.
