Default exhaust suggestions (installed pictures please too)

My pacesetter longtubes lay tight against my floor boards and when ever the motor moves, it smacks the collector on the floor. Its getting quite annoying. So I figured the only real way to fix the problem is to take my pacesetters off the car, tie them together and throw them over a powerline like kids do with their old reebok pumps. So what im trying to say is im in the market for a new exhaust system and i would like to know how close to the floor other brands of headers are, mainly the collectors. Im looking at the LPP longtubes and Y pipe, so if anyone could take pics of them that would be great but id like to see pics of all brands. Any suggestions for a new exhaust setup are welcome. Im getting rid of the whole setup. I have pacesetter longtubes, pacesetter off road Y, and a magnaflow catback. Hopefully replacing with LPP L/T, Y pipe, hooker catback. thanks in advance

Hey do you still have stock motor mounts? People report the same issue and after installing some new motor mounts it fixes the problem

My pacesetters did the same thing. Its a common problem thats well known. I strapped a piece of rubber between the header and the floor board. Fixed the problem. Been good for a long time now. No banging
