Value of this catalytic converter?

This cat is suppose to be off a 1990 Ford F-350 pickup. Could someone give me a minimum value for it. I will probably put it on ebay. Thanks.

it's is probably considered as a small domestic worth around $50

I would buy it as a medium domestic. You should be able to get $65-$70.

Its identical to the one on my 5.8l Ford. So you have the application right.

it is a large ford worth $50-$70 depending on where you go

its actually a ford Vent and is a rare one. It is worth $175

and it is actually illegal to sell used catalytic converters to be reused

Yes, I have used them once and Im using them a second time once I get a quote from them.

They provide free shipping which is really nice. Its actually something like $20 per cat but, seems to cover the cost. The first time I used them though, I did make a mistake. I had sent in what I thought were cats but, were actually something called resonators. They look just like cats but, they dont have honeycomb look when you look inside of them. So in the end I didnt get paid but, it also didnt cost me anything either. Im willing to try them again, they seemed to have good customer service.

They also have a price catalog that you can look up the price they will probably pay for your cat. They pay depending on how much of the honeycomb is left in the inside of the cat. For example if 50% of the inside is left they will pay you 50% of the catalog price.

I hope that helps

Price also depends on how much of the catalysis is left inside them.

I was wrong when I said $20 per cat, it is $5 per cat for shipping. That was the first time that I had every tried to sell a cat. I believed them because when you look threw the cat you can see right threw it as if you are looking threw a pipe. Someone had told me that there should be a honey comb look to it when you look threw it. The first one I send in looked like it never had the honeycomb look ever and it was just a metal pipe inside with small holes in it. Although what I sent in the first time definitely looked like a cat from the outside and they even gave me a quote but, later said that they cant pay me because there was not content inside. It is stated on the terms that they will pay you full price for a full cat, half price for a half cat, and so on. So I guess that was fair. Can you explain to me what a pre-cat is please?! I hope that wasnt what I sent in the first time.

sure ever scrap a ford with 4 cats 2 are pre"S 2 are cats think f150 crown vic ranger exploder etc they are on a lot of cars

So in summary it's either a small, a medium or a large and worth between $50 and $175.

Now that we've got that clear.

I sell multiple of these a month currently 65-75. I have never seen 175 and i deal with multi-companies that do mad amounts of cats and . But if u wanna send it to me for 175 ill be sure to send you the money back lolz

to make it clear the diesel catalysts, extra large catalysts and exotic catalysts go for $175+

i have an 18+ pound extracted ceramic honeycomb brick that came out of a semi truck converter, ceramic is going for $30 per pound right now (oem domestic and import)
