Glad to hear you are enjoying your Magnaflow system! Our's is for the 2.4 motor so is a paltry 2.25" Dia. and while installing we had the same clearence problem! Two things you should consider when adjusting the hangers:

1) Pipe is already close to the gas tank on the otherside of the Spring perch :red:?

2) Our muffler seems to sit lower in the back (barely noticeable) so when adjusting the hanger(s) try to refrain from over adjusting as the muffler could sit at a larger rake or tilt :eek:!

Good Luck and Enjoy,

If you're worried about heat you could use something like this:

That's what I used for my crossover pipe.
