Default OfI 4" Exhaust clearance pictures

Finally got all the tires and wheel so I could put the car on the ground so I could check the clearance for my exhaust. Right now the way it sits we have about 3.5" of clearance, but I have the car sitting really low right now. And also a couple pictures of the car. Making progress but im still collecting parts for the build.

Good looking build. Looks like a promising setup when finished. I really like the stance the car has.

Have any particular goals for the car?

man, having a oilpan that low would freak me out on a street car! Even coming down from a hard wheels up launch.

Kit looks sexy as hell! Car is deadly looking with that tire/wheel setup too

are u planning on running power steering or manual rack?if running power steering this will become hot as well from the headers.also what are u doing for spark plug wires.i would suggest u spend some time looking at the spark plug wires as those headers make the wires hot and can melt one like mine did.Lots of fire sleeve on there now.just a few of the issues we ran into on my build

Thank you for all the compliments guys. This has been a long build so far, things are getting a bit more expensive than I anticipated. Yes, the car is lowered. I am not sure how much in the front, but I have adjustable Strange Struts and I have adjusted the front end dwon quite a bit. I have Afco Rear Shocks and I have lowered the rear 3 inches from stock ride height. I will probably not run it this low, I was just looking to see what the clearance would be with the exhaust.

I am not sure if I am going to run power steering or not. Mad Man Racing has a manual rack that will bolt into a power steering K-Member, so I might go that route.

The wheels are Billet Specialty~ the front are 15x4 and the rear are 15x10.

Very clean, I like the stance as well, about the same as mine. I also have those same rims, looks great. Just a thought, if you put the manual rack in there, chances are it will interfere with that 4" DP like mine.

Looks good Don, I can't wait to get a ride in it. Keep up the progress, work on the car more instead of the honey do list!
