the tanks have plastic shields, this alone gives you 2 or 3 inches to play with and you only need 3 inches with a poly tank and yours are steel so no big deal.

I'm just about to do that with my I6 it did come out for the longest time just beside the gas tank underneath my 81 does have a heatshield around the gas tank though. My 85 had the exhaust come just to right beside the gas tank underneath as well except with no heat shield, although this truck I've never had on the road and the gas tank is patched it hasn't had a new muffler in awhile and it doesn't appear to have ever exploded therefore I think your safe
