I just bought an EL Fairmont Ghia :). I have an ED Faimont ghia with a relatively new exhaust (catalytic converter back not includind catalytic converter) anyway can I take it off the ED and put it on the EL?

I'm not sure if the exhaust will fit or run the same path under the car, but if all else fails you could just use the components and add the pipe to get the path the line the EL does.

Only differnces I can think of is hanger placement, but I'm pretty sure they are they same.
Other then that, straight fit.

Yep I did this the other day. Put my full exhaust from my EB onto the EF, and vice versa.
