[Closed] C456 Dropout problem

So the latest little snag I've run into is fitting my Avid Elixir rear caliper to my C456 frame. With 160mm rotors I can't fit the caliper between the seatstay and chainstay as the bolt holding the caliper together protrudes too far and fouls the frame. Is there aan alternate dropout to move the caliper above the seatstay? I'll be running the bike geared. I've looked on the on one website but not seen anything. I've e-mailed them but I thought i might get a quicker reply here.

Thanks

Yes there is a drop out with the calliper above the seat stay, my C456 came with that type out the box but almost everyone else seem to have the type you have.
