Side exhaust and suspention hitting/ Side exhaust Gurus Questions???

TASSY5 · January 20th, 2008, 09:27 PM

OK, my car is presently in the shop right now getting the Whipple HO. installed.
When I get it back at some point I have to fix the mid muffler side exhaust problem i am having.

Here's the situation: On hard braking in a strainght line(hard braking mind you) the rear end seems to be hitting the exhaust somewhere around the flange at the rear end causing a ting ting ting noise.
I seem to have enough room between the flange and the exhaust to put 1 finger on top of the other at the closest point. Is that just not enough? does the rear end nose dive that much on braking hard?
Also. the original Side exhaust from Cervinis had seperate flow tubes to connect to the mufflers with a slight bend in them and the new ones from Pypes don't ( more straight line with no bends ) Could that be the issue? could that slight bend be keeping my exhaust too close to the flange? Any Ideas hop to fix?

My remedy so far as I will be doing this already is a Adj UCA and Solid LCA's is this my BEST solution to stop diving and raising of the rear end.
Or do I need Adj Lowers and a Adj Upper too?
Lowering of some sort will come in the future at some point.
