Thanks for all the replies. I'll try to get some of your questions answered.
The cat should be here shortly. It's a Magnaflow, and will replace the original cat that was on the car. I figure whether the original is good or not, replacing a 21-year old cat can't be a bad thing.
Second, I don't have the emissions results. All three times I've had it run it's been done as a favor, and printing it out would cause the document to also be sent to the state as another failed test. If I test and fail again after the line install, I'll try to write down the numbers.
2 of the 3 failed tests were done at a shop that is more than willing to massage the results. My tests indicated a running rich condition all three times, but the last two (since the NA2T swap) were off the charts. I'm running at about 10mpg, at $3.00/gal out here.
EGR tested good, but I may need to replace the O2, good suggestion. I'll look around for the proper testing procedure.
Any other suggestions, given the info above?
