Default best fit on slammed z28???

I need help need to know which headers will give me decent clearance or at least clearance like stock gives me. Take in mind that the car is EXTREMELY lowered. Thanks guys

My pacesetters give great clearance, but I'm at stock ride
height. The collectors are tucked up there pretty good.
I'm guessing you'll have more probs with the Y, anyway
you go as there's only so close you can get w/o some good
motor mounts or Y pipe mount to keep it from banging.
Having said that, I run my ORY about a 1/4" from the floor.
With original motor mounts I'm just getting some
noticeable vibration from contact when taking off,none
on the shifts, and right now at least no KR from banging.

pacesetters tuck as close as you can get

you might want to invest in some oval tubing or raise that car up a little

if its slammed then performance is obviously not your main concern so why dont you just run a cutout in your I pipe and maybe some shorties with the pancake y pipe.

mine is dropped a 1.7 in the front and 1.8 in the back and i have kooks headers and a catted y-pipe...they tuck up very nicely and the borla exhaust hangs lower at the rear axle. the headers and y are about the same level as the sfc

guess i wil give the pacesetters a try since i have heard that shorties dont give you sh@t worth of gains.
