Magnaflows should be here today
According to UPS.. they are out for delivery at this very moment! 
I've been looking at a few articles out on the web about hints and what not for replacing the exhaust and a number of them say that you have to cut the old exhaust out unless you drop the rear axle. All of the examples I found though were for older stangs.... anyone know for sure?

If you want to take the old cat back out without cutting, jack the rear end up very high and drop the rear axle. If you're high enough off of the ground you will be able to slide the old cat back out with out cutting it.

So if I put it on the lift then I should be able to slide it out..
provided I can find the lift points on the carriage...
anyone have any images of where the lift pads should be setup under there?

The best points for the rear will be the lower control arm points (right behind the door) about 6 inches under the car. Just ahead of the control arm you will see a large flat area (about 6x6) that is perfect for the lift pad.
For the front, under the front subframe is best. This one is a little tougher to find. Its a "U" shaped channel of steel that will come from under the firewall down to about where you're feet go inside. They will be about 6 inches under the car.

A guy from the SCOA list sent me to the following link:

Looks pretty straight forward to me...
But getting the exhaust tonight has intimidated me a bit... a lot more parts than I was expecting...
I just gotta keep telling myself that it shouldn't be that tough, and if I run into problems, it doesn't have to be back together for Monday.... and if need be.. I can get someone to come out and give me a hand
