New floor pans going in, good time for sfcs?

I'm just wondering if there are any disadvantages to having sfcs installed right after new floor pans are installed. I was thinking if the floor pans were put in incorrectly the sfcs going in would make the suitation worse.

I do have Hooker 2055s with a matching y-pipe, cutout, and cat, so I don't know how well the passenger side sfc will fit.

Here's how the exhaust is setup.

To me it looks like the cutout is where the cat would be, and some SFC's have a bend that allows just enough for the cat in that certain spot, so if you get the ones from Top Down Solutions you might want to ask before you order...

No real reason. It's installed correctly on the car.

Spohn just said there is no problem with either item.

Might even be better to have the sfc installed b4 you cut the pans out to help keep the proper shape.

I have the cutout before the cat also. So no problem with that just make sure u have the cutout facing the right way. Im jellous I should have had my y-pipe and cutout coated too that looks nice.
