Hey all -- This is actually not about my Ex, but I figured it would apply (and ya'll are usually really helpful :)

Got a 1994 Chevy Beretta Z26 couple days ago, and its completely missing the catalytic converter. The whole car seems ghetto-rigged. The exhaust now has no flanges where its supposed to meet the cat -- just a straight pipe with exhaust clamps...about 4 on each side.

Can I get a universal cat and just clamp it down on both ends? I don't have access to a welder. The pipe on the car now leaks pretty bad but I think I could do a better job than the crap that's on there now.

Thanks all!
