Why? DIY ? you need a repair manual, your auto parts store may have one, your library many, filepeep.com may have, or
try manualslib.com
You will need it again if youi want to DIY. Any way, follow the Exhaust piping back to the area usually under the passenger seat, and or driver's seat if there is a dual exhaust. It is in front of the Ehaust muffler. It will have an oxygen sensor in the front with a sensor wire going to the firewall and then to the ECU (brain). Thre may also be the same arrangement on the end of the converter.

Either you have a bad O2 sensor or the screen in your CAT could be clogged.

Have a friend, (or in-law) someone you're not too fond of, stand in front of the truck while you honk the horn and have them pinpoint it for you.

SOURCE: where is my cabin air filter located on my 2008

You should get instructions on where to put the air filter when you purchase new ones.  I think that it is under the dash on the passenger side.  There should be a cover underneath the glove box with screws holding it in place.  This thing takes two air filters so Chevy can milk more money out of you.

Which catalytic converter do I replace on a 1998 chevy silverado 1500k with a PO430 error code

Pull the 02 sensor ahead of the cats and see which one allows the engine to run best and that is the one you want to change. On a 199 you may want to change both because about time you do one it won't be long before you do the other.
