Putting Headers on a 1.5" drop
Putting Headers on a 1.5" drop
I want to get headers, but I have the SLP suspension package on my 00' ls1, which includes the bilstein shocks and eibach springs, which dropped my car 1.5" all around, which is alot. I recently saw an SS with SLP headers at stock ride height and the header were very low to the ground, on my car it would be dragging or close to it. Has anyone put headers on a car with Eibach Sportline Springs or something comparable and were there clearance issues and what are the best headers to get in my situation with a lowered car.
Thanks,
Mike

Re: Putting Headers on a 1.5" drop
get the Hooker headers and you will NOT have an issue with ground clearence. The SLP's hang down a lot, but the hokkers sit nice and snuggly against the floor. Also get the Hooker y-pipe, or the mufflex. But that'll keep the clearence issues to a minimum.

from everything i've read....THEY DO
the clearance on my Flowtechs is very good. have yet to scrape and florida is the land of speed bumps.
now the 3" ypipe is a different story..that hangs low...but still ii havn't scraped it

From what I've read, and buddies cars that I've seen, the SLP headers do hang pretty low... lots of road rash on 'em.. even non lowered cars... go with Hooker coated headers, for the money, for sure.
