I don't think that would hurt anything, but I'm sure that will make for an annoying sound. Trimming a bit off the washers (for the bolt that goes into the bushing bracket) would let me mount the bar a bit higher and possibly double my clearance.
Anybody deal with this and/or ditch the reinforcement blocks?

Reinforcement blocks is just proper shimming to put the bar in ideal location relative to the endlinks. It's not really much to reinforce (especially since the bar is softer than OE rate).
I'll take a picture, but the way the perrin muffler comes up into the central muffler it basically Us right there, so I'm pretty sure it's far away from any contact
