Post Hooker LTs and Eibach Sportlines

I just talked to a guy in the Appearance Section that said he has dropped his car (LS1 T/A) 2" and runs the Hooker LT Headers without any ground scraping problems. I thought this wasn't possible? Any one else run this combo?

I assume you are using the Hooker LTs. How much is your car lowered?
