I have tried using aluminum spacers to get the sidepipes further away from the body on some cars with limited success. The aluminum "goes away" and eventually blows a hole out the side. I have also tried using hi temp RTV as exhaust gasket material with mixed success. It starts out OK but starts leaking not too long later. I have had the best luck using Mr.Gasket's sheet stock of header gasket material and tapping out my own gaskets with a little ball peen hammer.
