No pics, but I can tell you from experience it is not good. My car is stock height, cant imagine how bad it will be when the lowering springs go on soon.

Just a word of advice, put it together and fit it with the clamps they send and then take it back off and weld it. This will add a little ground clearance as the clamps drag sometimes.

I have 3 - 3 1/2" of ground clearance with my Z28 and stock suspension. I have not hit a single speed bump. With the stock motor mounts the Y pipe would still hit the car bottom at times, but once I installed poly motor mounts it does not move at all, and could be adjusted to give me more clearance. It takes time to get it adjusted right. I have seen a lot of pics where people complain but they did not have the pipes turned right.

Tip- don't touch the clamp bolts until you know its the way you want it.
And don't weld it. Just get some extra band clamps! I thought I had the Y adjusted the way I wanted it twice, and would be screwed if I had welded it.
