DS loop for 3inch DS?

Ok guys, when i kaboomed my last tranny, i decided that i have a stock shaft and thats not gonna hold up much longer either. So i had a new one built, its a 3inch 083 wall.. .basically the same thing as the spohn with the forged ends for 230 bucks, HS balanced and all

Here's te issue tho. I am gonna be breakin into the 13's easily AND am gonna be runnin slicks at some point, so i need to get DS loop. Problem is, where in gods name am i going to fit it? I have barely enough room to put the DS up in there between the cat back exhuast and the torque arm...

Anyone have any suggestions?

Steve

I still use a Lakewood third gen loop. I installed a 3" driveshaft this winter and it fits.
