Not being obstinate here...where else could the cats go? Is there a requirement for straight pipe before the cats? Truck is over 25 years old and no longer subject to sniffer test in NY.

Do not drive your truck to California. Recently saw where they have made people traveling through the state with out of state registrations visit Smog Referee stations merely because they were there, otherwise pay a big fine/vehicle impoundment. Caught without emissions equipment your vehicle was built with, big fine and vehicle impoundment. Their DPS will actually look under vehicles they have stopped with a mirror on a pole to see if the cats are there too. Probably aimed more at diesel trucks that visibly smoke and Mustangs/Camaros and the like with obnoxiously loud exhaust but still worth taking notice. Heaven forbid you start up your generator in your RV either, that is against the law there too. They cannot even use a gas powered fire pump in that state to keep their house from burning down in a wildfire.If you aren't using OEM parts, but you're trying to meet the letter of the law as best you can, the EPA's not likely to mess with you. There's a lot more low-hanging fruit out there. The big question is whether or not the smog officials in your area are going to have a problem with it. We don't even have safety inspections here.
That's just one more great reason for me not to go to Calif. . Among many others.Do not drive your truck to California.
