Does the v8 exhaust system have a flex pipe?

I'm trying to figure out if there is a flex pipe in line some where before the muffler.

Nope. All rigid piping.

Thanks, I just noticed that my local shop welded my tail pipe to the frame with a metal bracket. It's the section of the resonator delete. I'm worried that it's not good but they reassured me, and so did two other places, that it's okay because it's so far back from the engine. Should I cut it and hang one with rubber or is it okay?

As long as you don't back the tail pipe into something it'll be fine

Thanks, so the flex in the engine shouldn't be a problem causing and cracks or breaks?
