So there is no indication that this is a heavier duty T/C?

Yes, based  on my research it is heavier duty and/or installed  behind diesels.   C-40,50 trucks, motorhomes etc.

2) if you look at the  custom aftermarket converters that are put behind engines making 800+HP, they are 6 lugs.

 That's all i know for now.

JohnnyPopper:
Wow Stuart, quite impressed! Thanks!

I admit I know very little about T/C's but wonder if this has a different 'stall' RPM?

I know that it can vary by design and application.

Hopefully this one isn't with a high RPM, however it is a C-30 with H/D rears suspension.

Any other Heavy Weight care to add to our knowledge base? TIA!
