Once I had it bolted up, before I tightened it around the ORY I had a buddy take a long prybar and pry down on my ORY giving me max clearance between it and the floorpan. While he held it, I tightened the hell out of it. It's been there for almost two years and has NEVER banged the floor once. Ground clearance is still great as well, it doesn't hang low or anything. Personally I'd play around with the ORY a little bit before I put poly mounts in. I've heard nothing but tales of *** pain from those who've swapped mounts.
My only bitch about the Pacesetter piece is the crappy way the driver's side runs into the passenger side pipe. I had to take a Dremel with a flex shaft and hog it out. Look in there when you get it and you'll see. It was like they cut a small hole, then welded the pipe to it. For the money it's a decent piece though. TSP's looks like it may flow a little better. If I had to do it all over again, I'd get the Pacesetter ORY, as well as a Flowmaster merge and have it fabbed into the ORY instead of their half assed junction. The merge I'm talking about is a few items up from the hangar in the TR link.

I installed my pace lt's 2 weeks ago with a custom 3in y-pipe and cats to a magna flow catback. I also installed the mufflex hanger from the ws6store http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...a46e36f77fbff5
