Default Need new cat help finding one..

Hey I am trying to find a new cat converter that is cheaper then stock. Anyone know if there are any universals that have the dual inlet that would fit our trucks? Or does anyone sell a Y-pipe that will fit the pipes that go into the cat so I can run a single inlet universal cat.. Mine is plugged and rattling and killing my 02 sensor when I drive down the highway. 95 5.0

Any good exhaust shop can throw a universal one on there pretty quick and easy.

I have a 96 4.9 and have the 2-1 cat as well. I chopped mine off, went and bought a single in dual out slant tip stainless exhaust tip from autozone (about $12 i think) cut the slanted tips off, then turned it around so its now a dualin single out, and flexpiped from where the cat was to the 2-1, then ran a cherrybomb turbo (like $20ish but dont hold me to that) off that. straight slip fit on, clamped it up, works like a dream. I even went a step farther and had an exhaust shop weld a 02 bung in where the 2-1 connection was.

I almost bought that single in dual out tip to remove my cat, but instead just hollowed it and welded it back on.
