Default 01 camaro ss with long tubes starter options

My starter crapped out. What is the best option for a starter with LT headers.

not sure if the heat from the headers caused it or if it is just coincidental but

should I go with a delco or do you have mini options that will clear the headers?

Buy a starter blanket if you're worried about heat. Summit sells them.

I put on a Delco Remy truck starter (has two long bolts) for added security

I didnt get a chance to get it on the lift yet... do you have enough room to take the starter out with the long tubes in place?
