Default left and right front catalytic converters

Im getting close to change my exhaust pipes, transmission, engine and tranny mounts, and rear seal, maybe oil pan gasket i figure might as well do it all while im under there, but the only cats i find are driver side only or weld on im looking to make this easy as possible so i want to go with the bolt on ive owned a 2 car where the left is the same as the right because im only seeing 1 i wanted to see if any of you guys / gals have dealt with replacing both and if there is any difference i searched around but couldn't find any info on bolt ons i see a few people used manaflow universals even contacting companies i haven't got answers back

94 sc400

Wow, no period or comma's.. Makes it hard to read here...

Replace or remove the front two cats, and then replace the center cat, with a X pipe, size 10 inch long. Use the same size pipe all the way back. Keep the resonators if you remove the front cats, or it will be insanely loud, IMO. if you keep the front cats, then remove the resonators and use something like Magnaflow or equivalent in the muffler department. IMO.

GL!

I wanted to know if the cats are the same size and same part number. I've been to several sites and it looks like 1 side will fit both left and right bank, but then I see the same item same part no. on a different site and it will list it as passenger only and will not list a part number for driver side only
