RAndy sucks!!...jk..I'm glad to hear that you bought a swap through "Import"...those guys are cool. If I were you..considering you are soon to get the missing part, I would wait and put on the correct downpipe. A few more days won't hurt. Tips...let me see. First of all, if swapping motors is a first for you, be very careful you don't damage any sensors or parts (distributor, alternator, starter, etc...) and I would suggest double-checking yourself or have someone there with experience to lend a hand. Two heads are better than one.. Good luck!!
