how long do they last?

i was wondering how long flowmaster cat backs and catco converters last? i found one thats 2 years old and supposed to be in good shape for 80 bucks. the guy siad it has the number 4574914 stamped on the mufler,, and i can not find this number anywhere to tell me what muffler it is. he pulled it off his 85 Iroc cause he desided to make it a drag car. so is it worth the 80 bucks??

They'll definitely last longer than two years unless he ran super rich or super lean all the time.

My bad!


Thought you were talking about just the muffler. $80 for a cat and catback is a good deal

Get a CarSound Cat. It is a lot better than Catco and a little better than Random Tech. I got mine for $60.
