I just need any old catalitic converter that i can slap on. The car itself will pass aircare just fine, but even though its an 87, it still needs a cat. Does anyone have an old gutted one i can have for really cheap/free??  I made the mistake of chucking mine away when i replaced it w/ a straight pipe.

No it doesn't.

From the AirCare Questions and Answers page:

A catalytic converter is necessary for all 1988 and newer vehicles to pass an AirCare inspection. Older vehicles may be able to pass inspection without a catalytic converter.

Do as you please, but I've posted for you in plain black and white what AirCare themselves say about it.
