Dealer said part is on backorder with no date in sight...true?

You mean catalitic converter? You don't need some special Mopar cat. Drop in a set of new HF cats and call it a day. Your cat should not be fried at 22k mi unless something is wrong. Is your car running super rich or something?

My cats went bad after only 8200 miles. Replaced under warrantee. This is on a '05 Viper.

I believe Dodge has to warranty the cats for 10 years from in-service date, like every other manufacturer on the planet. Should even be a concern, as I am sure they will replace it without hassle. If they do hassle, I wouldn't deal with that dealership.

Take it to D.C. performance. They do factory dealer warranty work on Vipers, with no release date may be a problem, talk to Dan see what he can do.
