I still have the original X-member with modifications in the center for the trans. The pedals/MC assembly also bolts to the X-member, not the outside frame rail so there is no room to run the exhaust down the center until I get past the MC/power booster. By then it wouldn't be a problem. If I chose to go with manual disc brakes, I don't think clearance would be a problem but I do live in LA, which means power brakes become more important! I might have to use some kind of heat shield on the power booster or maybe I can push the power booster back past the center/side brace and use a pushrod extender to gain some clearance in that tight area.
I'm obviously a ways away from hanging exhaust but it's good to think about these things along the way.
