The inside of a catalytic converter....
looks like what? Mine looks hollow and wide-open. Did the previous owner open it up? Anyone...what should it look like as you look through it?
Thanks.

Inside of a Cat Converter
It looks like a light collimator or a fine honeycomb. You can see straight through it but not at even a slight angle. The grid is usually a few inches thick (in the direction of flow) and the grid has small openings - less than 1/16". If the grid is lying around in pieces, it has fractured and will give poor performance (pollution-wise and high rev.-wise)
Sounds like yours has been gutted.

I have no emmission testing here so I guess this is a good free mod!

Will a gutted cat converter cause any damage to the engine?
