i've got great clearance with my american racing headers but they're a bit pricey. nonetheless I love these headers! Sorry the pics are kinda big and I don't have one with it on the ground. But you can see how nicely the headers and Y tuck up under the car.

edit: don't use 4x4's under the jackstands like this... I took a big risk but had to to get the car up high enough and was lucky nothing happened. I immediately put it back down afterwards.

I think Dynatech on the whole (Y-pipe included) probably rank pretty close to the top of this list from the pics' I've seen. I can tell you that my QTPs fit well under the collectors, however the Y-pipe took a little love.

Good luck.

I am happy with my Pacesetters too. They have pretty good ground clearance and I dropped .25 second in the 1/8 with no tune.. Not bad I didnt think at all.
