Alright, got the Car in the air. Question on removing Cat.
I got all the bolts off, But the cat is like rusted / stuck on the Y pipe.
What can I do to get it off, I can't seem to get it...

I had the same problem it was completely rusted
on to the y pipe. first I tried to heat it up with
map gas and pull it off no luck. Next I took my
recipercating saw and cut the cat off about an inch after the y pipe. this left me the y pipe with about 3 inches of the converter pipe left
on it. then I took some metal chisals and attempted to split the old converter pipe no luck.
finally I went to sears bought the smallest grinder they had ($50) and cut the converter pipe so it would split. I grinded it enough to make a grouve down the old pipe and did the rest with some map gas and a chiseal. split the old pipe
so I could peel it off the y pipe.

Thanks bro...
I got what I needed done, and now everything is back.
It was an *** in the PAIN though. Oh well, aside from the 2000 nicks, cuts, and scratches on my hands, everything is ok....
