The MagnaFlow 447238 is a California Grade, CARB-compliant direct-fit catalytic converter for the 4.3L Astro and Safari vans. It is built from 16-gauge 409 stainless steel with mandrel-bent tubing, and a single laser fusion weld reduces the chance of a leak while the compact, low-mass design improves thermal efficiency. OE-style 410 stainless barbed hangers and 308 stainless MIG welds add durability, and the flange gasket, two donut gaskets, and Torca AccuSeal clamp needed for installation are included for a bolt-in fit with no cutting or welding. It is CARB compliant and legal for sale and use in California and CARB states on the listed vehicles.
