If your stock cat-back is in great shape, draw some lateral lines through your cut zone (so it can be lined up and rewelded) and cut it off about 5-6" or so from the muffler on a straight section of pipe.  If the exhaust is all rusted out/rotted don't bother.   Some folks are on the hunt for stock exhaust systems for these cars given they are entering restoration age</blockquote>
