header length?

longtube vs. short tube?

If you have lowered you Camaro longtubes have a greater risk of draging?
Get shorties if you have lowered yourself?


is this right?

Anyone?

Thanks.

Re: header length?

correct

the collectors on the LTs are under the floorpans of the front seats...fairly low.

when lowered you would proably have about 2.5-3" of clearance...

go with midlenght...like MACs

90% of the gains of LTs but no clearance problems

Re: header length?

I agree, get mids instead of shorties. You can change the collectors and do some port work and the Macs will perform closer to LTs
