RE: Discount Converters

[Bruce Giller <bgiller@domain.elided>]

	My '86 Spider has the Heat Shield Rattle and 133k miles.  The cat
probably needs to be replaced for emissions results have been going down
each year.  Not sure that I can put one one since my car with Shankle
Sport springs already scrapes speed bumps; 1" lower and it'll drag all
the time.  

	Did you see any way to bend the cat to get the 1" back?

	Does the discount cat have a heat shield?
