Default Exhaust hits noisey how do i fix?

Well over the weekend i got the car ready for the dyno

fixed some leak's in the exhaust, installed new 02's a long with some other things, today on the way to the dyno shop i was happy no more leaks rattles was gone wanted to see how it ran with the new 02's nailed 1st gear and clunk I feel the pipe hitting the floor and my headers on the passenger side is hitting the cross member and resonating exhaust sound true the car makes me feel like i'm driving a peace of #$%!

whats the best way to stop the floor hit and whats the best way to put a dint in stainless headers for clearance (on car would be nice if it can be)

Poly motor mounts can help stop the twisting that is causing it to hit at WOT.

Yep, more than likely the stock mounts are garbage.

moving too much.

I installed the "bump stop hanger" but have not drove it to see if it fixed my problem, I've read online that it does stop the bang see what happens
