Good luck with the headers if they are going to be long tubes. Mine is about as low as yours and I snag every thing on the road. Car looks great but those few inches ARE the difference between passing over and hitting, dragging or rolling objects along.

Save your money on that. The LS1 manifolds are known to be very good and no one has had much success improving on them with shorties (mids). I've called and asked, decision was made. A few hp claimed is all there is and some tests have shown a slight loss. Take the stockers off, have them blasted and paint them up with POR20 heat paint. You'll save $400 or more and have the same power with pipes that will outlast the rest of the car.
