Re: Did 85 K30's comw with cats?

It all depends on your particular truck, and if it had the emissions package. I have had trucks as old as 81 with factory cat. Looked at a 79 for sale by original owner the other day that had factory cat. My 87 V30 had a factory cat, but it got removed and replaced.

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

Re: Did 85 K30's comw with cats?

Any chance the factory emissions sticker is still there? If so, it should have a diagram of the entire emissions system the truck came equiped with.

FWIW, my '79 9000GVW truck didn't come with a factory cat, my old '79 8200GVW did come with a factory cat.

You can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill,
and I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe de Ville.
