I have stainless steel Magnaflow exhaust and don't want to have it modified as it will put me over my budget. Has anyone actually had problems with their exhaust pipes and clearance? Thanks guys.
Might not be helping here but thought I'd chime in. I have a 66 Mustang with 3" Magnaflow stainless exhaust. My car is lowered about 3" all around and I ran a 7/8" rear sway bar. I was worried when I bought the exhaust kit that it might interfere with the sway bar but surprisingly it fit, it was tight but it all fit with the 3" tailpipes. If you can't get an answer here try calling Magnaflow, they probably have already experienced the sway bar issue on a Camaro and would be able to tell you for sure.
