Default Which Headers on a lowered car??

Hey whats up i am just woundering what everyone thinks about putting headers and a y-pipe on a lowered camaro..i have the eibach sportline springs on it and i want to put a set of LT headers on my car..i am also going to put a cam in it soon and i would like to know if anyone has any suggestions on which headers i should get that would give good ground clearance and good hp gains..thanks for any help.

My car is not lowered but my Hooker LT's still fit close to the body. I wouldn't think that there would be any major problems with a lowered car and these headers.

Kooks tuck up very nicely and I have lots of clearance with my Pro-Kit springs.

Most headers are tight enough(except SLP).It's the Y-pipe you have to watch for.

I have the LGM Hypercoils & the Pacesetter LT/Ory. No clearance issues @ all. Very nice fit!

My Hooker's tuck up very nicely, it's the Y-Pipe that hangs down. You can't even see the headers from the side of the car, all you see is the y-pipe.
