    No power, stock engine.

    Just within the last couple of days, my car seems to have lost all power and falls flat at about 5k RPM's. The engine is 100% stock 99 LS1 swapped into a 95 T/A. The tune is the stock 99 tune. It acts as if the cats are clogged or something, but I am not getting any codes and there is no rattle in the cats. I got a short log using the default config, along with the rear o2 mv. The fuel pressure is perfect. What do you guys think?

    Pull the front 02's and pressure check the exhaust to see if your suspicion on the clogged cats is correct.

    Just an update for future searchers, drivers side CAT was clogged. Hollowed them both out, and now all is good. I set the cat efficiency codes, left and right, to 3 No error reported. I left the rear o2 codes alone.

    Kinda weird I didn't get a ses light...

    I've had them clog on (2) seperate instances. Both times had the dealer replace them under warranty. Each time got a catalytic converter inefficient code. Thing was glowing red hot at one point. I was tired of going back for a free fix and nearing the mileage limit for the fix anyhow so I just gutted them as well.
