Exhaust question

Is there anyone out there that is running the Bassani catback with JLP traction bars? My exhaust is hitting the tractrion bars and I was wondering if anyone has this problem and if they have found a fix for it.

Thanks
Damon

Many have had that problem with many diff diff cat backs, Bassani included

I had your issue on my old Blk L using the stock and later an American Thunder Cat Back system and never overcame it, HOWEVER when I switched to Bassani Sal simply made a few tweaks here and there and it NEVER hit again.

My Red L has Bassani w' JLP bars also with NO ISSUE
Sal did that install too

Dont have any great pic's of it (SORRY GATOR) but it's NEVER hit

Here's what it looked like when I got it
(you can see there is good clearance between the bar and pipes)



and after I undercoated it





EDIT
Just found some pic's of Blacky's Bassani set up (god she was mint) (insert crying here)....

Not much room there.
From the pictures it looks like you could gain some by turning the muffler a bit. Look at the slight difference in the pics.

You might also be able to stack some washers on the traction bar mount.

Not huge gains but every little bit helpls
