    Default VN 5.0 catalytic converters?

    Hi, Im running a high flow cat atm but Im looking to grab a second hand stock cat to put back in. Anyone know what models are the same like vn v6, vr/s v6 or v8? What are they worth.

    VN/P/R all have the same cat's at least VN/P anyway also the VR/S V8's are the same also. If you get one and hold it up to the sun you can see through them enough to spot a broken one. $50 should get you one at a wreckers

    You'll find most wreckers get around $90 for a catalytic converter from the scrap metal man

    Well brand new they can retail for up to $300, so it's fair enough
