Flush to the start of the cat would be best...
Then I have plenty to extra to just in case I make a mess...
You should get £40-£50 scrap value on the monaliths BTW...

Me either....
Scrap man came knockng one day. I had some Granada 24V cat's that were no use to me.. got £30 and they are quite small aparently...
Have a look in your local free paper for people buying scrap for cash..
It's the platinum coating that they recover and we all know what that is worth!!

Yeah TT is so right.
Basically a striped Scorpio with all the bits not worth keeping left on & the alloy separated from the steel etc is worth £150.
That's what I got for my last one
But remember it's a fair bit of work to strip a car.
Copper pipe is the real money spinner at the moment.

Now then, As above for TT yesterday I cut the flange off one of the cats that I removed from my car when I got new ones for the mot and gues what was inside.................. NOWT!
So that leads to an obvious question where is the monalith.
My gues is its further back down the exhaust blocking the silencers, Looks like I will have to take the pipe off and sea if it rattles
