Not sure about Cali trucks, but for the 2000-2001 model year, Dodge Rams don't have a DI/SO catalytic converter from the factory. They have a larger 3" SI/SO converter, stock. So the 3" SI/SO aftermarkets fit up much nicer. Just a FYI.
I'm assuming Cali trucks had a similar change, but they also integrated some "pre-catalytic converters" in addition to the more-than-normal oxygen sensors around the 2000 or 2001 model year, if memory serves.
EDIT: Forgot that I had put this in the FAQ section.

I live in Northern Cali. I can't speak on how many cats a 2000-2001 Rams have, but what I can speak on is just how expensive Cali cats are. I only needed one and it took me 3 months to find one (it was tougher to find a C.A.R.B. compliant cat 3 years ago) and when I did find it, it cost me $230. That's a hard pill to swallow when you know that 49 other states are only paying $80 for a cat and can get it in 2 days.

A lot of exhaust shops and online parts places will list the dual inlet, single outlet catalytic converter as the replacement for all 1994-2001 Dodge Rams. They are incorrect. Dodge/Chrysler didn't really document the change well enough, evidently.

Other than a note about California trucks (which I just did), what needs to be updated? It states the model years for both setups.
