Quick and Easy Underhood question

One line from the divertor valve(?) goes to the AIR tubes in the manifolds (or headers ) and one goes to the cat.

Outboard goes to cat or headers?

Inboard (closer to throttle body) goes to cat or headers?

TIA
Matthew (gonna pass emissions TODAY)

On my 92, the outer one runs to the cat, the inner goes to the manifolds/headers.

You can verify this pretty easily. On a cold start air will come from the manifold only side. Once warmed up in closed loop, it will only come from the cat side.

Again thanks Ed. Here's my numbers:

High Speed Emission Results:

Code:
          -Std-        -Reading-
HC         220            0012    
CO        1.20           00.11
CO2        N/A           13.1
Low Speed Emission Results:

Code:
          -Std-        -Reading-
HC         220            0008   
CO        1.20           00.01
CO2        N/A           10.6
And the beautiful part is (A) It's totally the wrong cam for it and (B) the MVD didn't charge me a late fee
