Last part I need to solve for my build. I'm leaning towards the ARH for the ground clearance, but I have to admit they're pricey and I"m not going to be doing a super-high-end build so I don't really ~need~ that nice a set. Hence looking at the hooker/JH set. Anyone know of any fitment issues like the pacesetters had (notching the K-member), or anything I should be aware of for them? How hard are they to get fitted? How's ground clearance? I like that the ARH sets fit extremely tight - I have to drive in the snow sometimes, and every drop of clearance will help.

I have hooker headers on my car and i had to notch the k-member slightly but it seriously only takes like 5 min with a sawzall. the ground clearance is great. my car is lowered at least 1.25" and i've never hit the headers on anything.

given my skill with a sawzall, I'd cut the unibody in half I'll go with the ARH or Kooks then. Thanks!

Stock K-member may be an issue with any header....there is some good info in the stickies. I have kook's 1 7/8 Race style in my car.....aftermarket K-member though and fitment along with ground clearance is very good.

I saw mention of the Pacesetters in the stickies, but that's it - it seemed like the rest were going to be good.

Surely someone has one that doesn't require modification?

My Pacesetters required no notching of the K-member or anything else, slipped right in.
