Exhaust clearance question.

How far is the stock Y pipe supposed to be from the main subframe crossmember under the engine? Mine is within 1/8" of it and I believe it is causing a nasty exhaust rattle.

Car has the same rattle and clearance with old motor mounts, and newly installed poly motor mounts that I was hoping would solve the exhaust rattle issue.

Thats too close.
Loosen the y-pipe at both manifolds, tweak it some then re-tighten.
