Hey Ken,

Walker Tenneco 80600/80700
Magnaflow: 33000/34000
AirTek: 91000

These are the only approved converters possible for sale/install in
pre-OBDII T-2 class vehicles (light duty truck, 3,751 - 5,750 GVWR) in
California as of July 10th 2009, certified used converters could still
be installed after Jan 1st this year, but that expires tomorrow.  Hope
they fit.
