If you don't mind the exhaust leak then you can always just take the cat off and gut it. Drive a steel rod down through it several times and then remove what's left of the inside. You'll need something pretty heafty to drive all that out... This is all assuming that you don't have to pass emissions and you don't have any problems with getting pulled for the exhaust being too loud.

Firebretha - There were some 91 and 92 birds that had bad casting flaws... the oil return holes were almost closed off. I think it was typically the front holes, so if you get that smoke when parking facing downhill then that could be the prob.
