    When you replaced the head gasket, did you have the head machined and the valves examined? Overheating can warp the aluminum head and damage the valves. Simply installing a new head gasket is not enough. Removing the catalytic converter introduces a host of new problems--I would reinstall it right away. What codes were thrown?
