MagnaFlow Conv DF 97-98 Ford F-150 4.6L

MagnaFlow is well-known for making exhaust components that flow well and last a long time. This direct-fit catalytic converter is built for your 1997-1998 Ford F-150, specifically designed to help keep your check engine light off and meet emissions standards. It’s a CARB-compliant unit, meaning it’s legal for use in California and other states with strict emissions requirements.

This converter uses mandrel-bent tubing, which means the inside diameter stays consistent throughout the bends. This helps maintain smooth exhaust flow, which is important for both performance and fuel economy. The tubing itself is made from 16-gauge 409 stainless steel, giving it solid corrosion resistance for a long service life. MagnaFlow uses 3D scanning during their design process to ensure this part fits and functions just like the original equipment, so you can expect a straightforward installation. The single laser fusion weld is designed to reduce the chance of leaks, and its compact, low-mass design helps with thermal efficiency.

Installation is designed to be simple, with no cutting or welding required, making it a job you can likely tackle yourself with the right tools. Essential gaskets and hardware are included in the box to help you get the job done right.
