Well i just got my Holley Catback exhaust the other day and got under the car to put it on and to my surprise (not) the stock exhaust pipe is rusted to **** and the nuts on the catalytic converter rusted to the bracket... so what options do i have? i go out and buy a reciprocating saw and 5 24T blades, which is what lowes tells me is the best to get and it will cut right through the bolts... well 2 hours later and 5 blades that feel like a butter knife, not one bolt was cut off... i made it half way through one, but once i hit the bolt, it wouldnt go through anymore... i am not very patient and i want the exhaust on, but i dont have $60+ for someone to put it on, and im a do-it-yourselfer so it would hurt my pride a little more than my wallet to pay someone to put a bolt-on on for me... any suggestions would be nice

 

A sawzall with a metal cutting blade should be able to get thru the exhaust bolt. Will take some timeas u already know from getting partially thru one.
