Thtas because of the bend angle where the frontpipe exits the front cylinder ,there is not enough clearance behind the kit oil cooler.
They have tried-believe me!
They have to weld the termi's after every practice or race!!!

That must be some weird bend radius , the front pipe comes off the underside of the engine , the oil cooler is mounted directly under the radiator (on the kit too) , there's loads of clearance , the LV pipe would have to turn forwards in order to clash , sounds dodgy to me
