Default Electric Cutouts on lowered Fbody?

I have the BMR lowering springs and the car sits pretty low.
Hooker headers with custom y-pipe.
is it possible to go with electric cutouts with it lowered like this? or is there a good spot for it?

thanks

You can install the cutout right before it goes into the muffler. You should have plenty of ground clearance there.

This works well. I have Eibach springs on a Moser and no scraping.

does it really matter where you place the cutout for power?
