MagnaFlow's OEM Grade converter replaces the front rearward bank converter on the transverse 3.5L V6, the unit closest to the firewall, and bolts into the factory location without cutting or welding. The compact spun body measures 11.875 in overall over a ceramic substrate, built from 16 gauge 409 stainless steel tubing with 308 stainless steel MIG welds. Flange inlet and outlet connections carry a single post converter oxygen sensor port, and a crush ring gasket with five bolts and eight nuts is included. This converter is built to Federal EPA standards and is not legal for sale or installation in California, Colorado, or New York.
