no i dont but you will see on the driver side where is gets really close and most people just get a hamer and hit the frame a little and make sure you will not have that problem!
Just a little not much! One of my friends we did kooks on we has to use the hamer a good bit to keep it from banging!

here's some pics of the Stainless Works headers installed. Great ground clearance...Trany pan and subframes are lower than the headers or y-pipe. When i was talking to stainless works before I purchased, they said the set up was designed to work with the eibach kit. dont remeber which kit, but all you have to do is shoot them an email or call, they have great customer service.

i like my pacesetters will never change. But think twice about the sportlines i have them and i F#$%*^(% hate the things. I am switching to strano's probably but they are on back order till july. I have true duals with an H pipe and they scrape like crazy.

Has anyone considered adding skid plates to protect the headers on speed bumps? Just weld a piece of 1/4 inch steel plate next to them hanging down just a tad lower. They will take the hit, not the headers.
Anyway, if you have a really low car can the Y pipe be made to not hang down lower than the K-member or trans crossmember? I'd like to tuck the new exhuast about 1" higher than the stock setup. I don't plan to run cats so that helps. Can this be done or would I need to modify the floor boards?

My buddy has a 97 Z28 and put sportline springs on his car, he has pacesetter LT and Y Pipe, he hardly ever hits it on anything, its usually his cut-out that rubs on the speed bumps if he doesnt go slow, i also Eibach Sportlines on my car, and i dont hit either.

i have hedman headers and they tuck up very nice, my car isn't lowered tho. my y pipe you can see if you get on the ground and look but you can't see the headers.
i live in a place with some big *** speed bumps and nothing hits
