Duals with stock Panhard brace?

I'm pricing out the rest of what I need to get the car on the road this summer, building a 2.5" over the axle dual set up.
Can I get them to fit with the stock panhard brace? If not I'll have to send an order to founders.

It can be done. Mine is, but it's a snug fit and I can hear the pipes hitting things even though the exhaust shop dimpled them slightly. Had I known about the Founders part before I had the custom exhaust made, I would have bought it and kept 3" duals all the way back. Whether you go with 2.5" or 3" that Founders part is well worth the cost. I'll be ordering and installing one this summer just to get rid of the annoying metallic jingle.

Alright... Since I'll be doing all tubular stuff back there anyways I guess I'll order it.
