Default Basic exhaust question

Hey, I have a simple question about 5.0 exhaust.

I don't understand the order that the exhaust goes when using LONG TUBE equal length headers.

Is it, Long tubes >> Cat back with x-pipe >> down pipes with mufflers
Or Long tubes >> No catalytic converters? >>mufflers?
The summit site shows flowmaster complete exhaust system but doesnt show the CC's in the picture? WHADAFAK? Check out part No. FLO-17106 if you wanna see what I mean.
I all seems confusing. I don't know which combo of parts are compatible with eachother.

Any info would help thanks!

Headers first, short H-pipe or X-pipe, then cat-back.

Ok cool. Could you tell me if these 3 parts work in conjunction or am I just buying useless add-ons that aren't compatible.

Haha nevermind. I called up the Summit tech support and they helped me decide on some KoOL parts. Thanks anyway!
