Can't you just torque the mounting brackets a bit so it sits lower and clears your body?

I thought of that but, But the pipe will be almost touching the Throttle servo.

There quite a few of us l5b owners on here. Scroll thru peoples pics if they have same pipe. I'm sure you'll find a solution

The body fits, but I'm afraid of it getting hot enuff to melt the body. Also not sure if it will get to hot and melt or damage the throttle servo arm. It sits about 3/8 of an inch from the arm. I have seen before other guys using this pipe. Not sure I like it.

Never used heat wrap. You know where to get it. I think that might work

Try also heat foil on the body when you paint it. Might help.

That's normal . Mine is also close to the servo but is not going to damage your servo at all. The exhaust will slightly touch your body and you need to use heat resistant tape like i did.
I used this but I am sure they are cheaper ones on Amazon.

Thank you Jshaff16 and everyone else, lots of good ideas. You guys are Awesome. Just did a couple off heat cycles on my OBR Engine. Running great. Just going to paint and use heat wrap. Should be fine.
