yeah,try n straighten it up a bit, if it hits the bulkhead,you need to adjust the bracket above the clutch support bar a bit more with ya hammer and turn the lip down a bit on the bulkhead itself

in the end, i reshaped mine loads and used some washers to raise it even more on the brackets so it sits up more rather than laying flat.

looks good tho,better than before

You sure thats a sti6 tmic? The 6 has a bolt on dump valve, the 3/4 has the right angled pipe. Also, the bottom is different, see this:
