Default Header ???

I was running Hooker 1 3/4 Lt's. Now with my new set up, I need 1 7/8". My question is, what headers will work with a hooker Y pipe, and still not cause any clearance issues? I loved my hookers, you couldnt even tell my car had Lt's on it. And of course I am not trying to break the bank with a header purchase either. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks

tsp's y pipe was originally for pacesetters and hooker headers.... Their new headers will work with the y pipe so the hooker one should work as well... or you would think it would... But if you had Hookers and had no problem with them I would just get the hooker 1 7/8 headers, because the tsp's hang low from the pics I have seen...
