The 1-7/8" headers should not have worse ground clearance than the 1-3/4".

Im going with a 402, with ported heads and a huge cam. So ya im going with 1 7/8, thats what tsp told me to go with. But i know there is a huge discussion about the header topic

Yesterday I ordered Edelbrock coated 1 3/4" to 1 7/8" stepped race headers with air/egr ......looked at quite a few headers in the last month, except Kooks, and these look the nicest...I have 3 friends with Hookers[not ls1] and none of them like them much particularly.

would a decent gain be seen with a heads/cam car with 1 7/8's with a larger shot of nitrous compared to that with 3/4's? sorry to hijack, but you said over 500rwhp, would that be included with nitrous?

Might want to check with the nitrous guys to see what they think. It may be a very bad thing to have that much nitrous injected exhaust gas trying to escape a smaller primary, but I don't know.

I run the QTP 1 7/8's on my 402, they work perfectly. QTP doesn't make the 1 7/8's anymore so you have to go with the Kooks, still an awesome header and they will work perfectly for what you want to do. My car is lowered and they are the same clearance as the 1 3/4 headers were.
Hope that helps.
