Either unbolting of the old one(very rusty at times) and simply bolting on the new one, or if you have a factory welded one, cutting the old one out will be necessary, then the new one will be fitted in place, and welded. as simple as it sounds, it really isnt if you dont have the proper equipment.
What else can I help you with?
How can one extract metal from a catalytic converter?
To extract metal from a catalytic converter, the converter must be cut open to access the metal inside. The metal can then be separated using a process called smelting, where it is melted down and separated from other materials. This process requires specialized equipment and should only be done by professionals due to the potential hazards involved.
How can one extract the metals from a catalytic converter?
To extract metals from a catalytic converter, the converter must be cut open to access the internal components. The metals can then be separated using a combination of chemical processes and high heat to break down the materials and extract the valuable metals such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium. This process requires specialized equipment and should only be done by trained professionals due to the potential hazards involved.
What is involved in replacing a head gasket?
On the Villager, replacing both gaskets is most easily done by removing the engine from the vehicle.
Is a torque converter major repair?

How do you change the catalytic converter on a 4 cylinder 1988 Mustang and what is the cost?
Definately go to a muffler shop. Time and work involved in doing it yourself is not worth the effort, aside from the fact that depending on where you live, you may face legality issues. Cost, about $100-$200? Maybe up to $300 depending on the cost of the part.Shop around.

No there will be modifications involved.
What is the total amount of platinum in a typical catalytic converter?
I found a site claiming that a catalytic converter can carry b/t 3-7 ounces of platinum per converter. According to this site(wired.com), platinum is going at a rate of 2075 dollars per oz. This means you would at least have 6225 and up to 14 and a half thousand dollars if you could harvest the platinum purely. The next question is how do you get the platinum in a catalytic converter out of it to get this reward. Stolen catty's go for 200, but I'd rather not go that route. The site also mentione other metals involved in the production of converters such as rhodium and palladium are going for 445 and 7300 an ounce. I might have to recant on that whole not theiving idea.There are usually about 3 grams of platinum in a catalytic converter. There are 31.1 grams in an ounce. Platinum is at $2000/ounce so you can figure right at $200 worth. Please note manufacturers are starting to use other materials so you may have very little, if any, platinum.There are 28 grams per ounce not 31.1.CORRECTIONS TO YOUR ANSWERIn every Kg of honetcomb which is the filter you find on average 1.5g of platinum (Pt), 0.5g of palladium (Pd) and 0.1 rhodium (Rh). Some catalytic converters have a heavy honeycomb while others are light depends on the engine size, if the engine is big car companies tend to use a bigger honeycomb. Regarding the ounce the internation ounce weight is 31.1g but the US ounce weight is 28g.***CORRECTIONS TO YOUR ANSWER****There are in fact 31.1 grams to a TROY OUNCE, which is the measurement used for precious metals. There are usually between 3 to 7 grams per catalytic converter, which is coated on a honeycomb ceramic substrate. There can be up to 15 grams of platinum in large truck catalytic converters.*Clarification*There are two types of converters, ones with the honycomb structures, and ones with platinum-coated pellets. The pellets are easy to harvest, but if you're going to havest them, make sure they're your own!
