A new cat?

I'm doing the exhaust on my '85 8V NA and I decided to buy a new catalytic
converter at a parts store. I went with the Bosal brand for an OEM fit
rather than screw around with a cheaper "universal fit" type. When I
compare this new one to the old, they look different. Same overall length,
but the old one is the familiar oval "football" shape, while the new is
more of a flattened rectangle with rounded corners. And it has it's own
built-in heat shield. My question: is this what the dealer would sell as
an OEM part these days? I suppose that this is the result of 15 years of
design advancement- and I think that having that extra heat shield is a
much-needed improvement. Has anyone out there bought one of these at a
dealership lately?
