Lowering Brace Under Y-pipe-How Low?

Hi,

My warp Y is hitting kinda hard on my 6spd 02 Max. I was wondering how low I should bring it down? Is 3/4" too low?

I think he means it's hitting the crossbrace (?)

use a couple of washers as spacers, if that's the case.

There are 2 cross braces. One is under the Y-pipe and one is at the back of the exhaust system by the B-pipe. The aftermarket Y-pipes sit lower then OEM and bang on these braces. I'm taking my car in to the guy who installed my exhaust so I wanted some info on how low he should lower the car.
