Can someone send me good direction on setting up gmail (as exchange) so that I can get push e mail and sync contacts and calandar form an imac to an iphone?

Please note that I do not have an exchange server but I was told you can set up G mail as exchange. Is the correct?

You can, I forget the exact steps but it's under Googles Help docs. You'll need to make a new mail account on your phone as Exchange not Gmail.
 
Search for google mobile sync to get instructions on how to set up gmail as exchange on the iPhone.
