that makes sense re blocked cat .
 
the connections to the egr valve are all sound..one clue, maybe a red herring; there is water coming out of exhaust pipe not much, steam really...had head reworked a year ago..wonder if water is getting into the fuel mix ?   header tank needs a pint every 1000 miles

I think a big clue here is "header tank needs a pint every 1000 miles" and "water out of exhaust", does suggest coolant is leaking into a cylinder or intake somewhere (?)
