Dual exhaust/T56/SFC clearance questions.

I have a T56 and I have Spohn tubular SFC's. I also have hooker full-lengths. I'd like to get the TDS/Alston SFC's also. But I want to run dual exhaust with an H pipe or preferrably an X pipe. I plan on doing bullet mufflers with turndowns. I have the ability to fab a new crossmember that's humped or notched for clearance if necessary. And I've been considering doing the exhaust in oval pipe for increased clearance anyways.
I'm getting ready to do my chassis work so I need to know if I should order the Alston SFC's or if they'll prevent me from being able to run the exhaust like I want.

I also have a Global West TracLink torque arm, It shouldn't interfere with any of this though.

Any of you ever run a setup similar to this?

if your custom exhaust is anything like im envisioning, you shouldnt have a big problem with the SFCs...


for the T56 crossmember though, you may want to find someone that can do you somthing custom... theres a great thread with pics on custom T56 cross members that have notches to clear a dual exhaust.... you may want to do a search on it.

I'm thinking that if I get enough clearance at the crossmember and use 3" oval pipe.....I should be able to tuck it up enough to have good ground clearance. I have alston sfc's also, and from your pic your pipes don't hang down anymore than the sfc's.
