It is a Falcon set. I shortened the pipe 1 1/2" and the front muffler has
1/4" clearance at the front at the chassis and about 1/2" at the rear. Best
I could do.
Thanks to all for your suggestions and assistance.

I concur. I tried two exhaust systems on my TR3 & neither nor my mechanic
could make them fit. Finally put the Falcon SS on and it fit fine and will
last forever.

I have found that not all mufflers are the same. Some suppliers have
a (forward) muffler that is several inches longer than others. You
may have a longer variety which is fouling with the diff.
Not sure which length is correct, but the shorter one (e.g. Falcon
S/S) is a better fit IMO.
