Bear with a relative newbie, please.

My main cat converter pipe is rusting out. So I go out to eBay to order a new one and take it to the mechanic. Wrong one, he says, this is for a Cougar.

Now I am having a hard time finding ANY replacement cat and pipe that looks like mine.

The cat converter has 2 inlets from the two manifolds, going to 1 outlet pipe, then it goes into a flex pipe, then continues out the rear of the car into the duals. All the ones I am seeing are single inlet/outlet with no flex pipe.

I've searched eBay, RockAuto, and even asked someone parting out an SVT for theirs. It looks like the one I bought, and it's from a '98 SVT also.

So did a previous owner have something custom-rigged, or have any of you seen something that looks like mine?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Mike
