List Sages, 

My dad bought a Falcon SS exhaust system for our 100M a few years ago. We 
finally got it installed recently and were chagrined to find that, when the 
brake and clutch pedals are fully depressed they come scarily close to the 
downpipe. Anyone else have this or a similar problem and, if so, how did you 
resolve it? I know we can bend and/or cut/weld the pipe, but would like to 
avoid this. Can anyone recommend a brand/source of downpipe that has the 
adequate clearance? An inch forward lean to the pipe would solve this problem. 

BTW, we fired the M's engine up for the first time yesterday after a complete 
teardown/rebuild as part of our frame-off of this car. Sweet.
