Thanks, sorry that I did not clarify what I was looking for. Yes, I did look and find all of the after market replacements. What I'm looking for is the original OEM part# for the factory original TWC.
All 2013+ cars in Kalifornia will have to be rubber band powered but the rubber must be made from recycled condoms left over from the current year San Francisco gay pride parade.

Probably little if any difference but, there seems to be two separate #'s. I don't have either # so, if you can find the factory OEM # for either, that would work too.

California Cats
I know this thread is old, though read on, it might help a poor soul who has the issue with cat converter theft in California. I had the issue come up regarding cat replacement after mine was cold jacked in broad daylight in Sacramento, Ca. After seeing the prices for California cats and non-California cats, I decided to order a non-California cat and install it myself. It was a bit tricky because the thief took off with one of the cat flanges, so I had to jerry rig it. I ordered a magnaflow and had it sent to my family in Colorado. Then the family sent it to me, saved quite a bit of money going this route. My truck still had Colorado plates on it, so that meant I would have to go through the California registration and smog inspection. To prevent the smog inspectors from noticing it was not a California cat, I soaked the cat with salt water (home blend), and it oxidized shortly after, totally covering any number that might indicate to the smog inspectors that it was an after-marker non-California cat. Needless to say the smog guys informed me that my truck is a target vehicle for catalytic converter thief's. I acted ignorant to the subject. Apparently the oxidation trick worked .
