Hi,
I have a 67 SS with a very healthy 427. The car is dropped 2 inches. I currently run Hooker Super Comps but they hang too low. Can anyone suggest a Header brand that would fit tighter for better ground clearance? I don't want to choke the motor with shortys, and I would prefer a header that isn't "beat to fit" Thanks.

Thanks, I know Lemons are the way to go, but for Ceramics it's $1800.00 and I have to use small block motor mount stands, a different starter, etc. I'm hoping I can go with store bought over custom made. Thanks again.

here are the headers I have now. they fit great. the only problem is there 2" primaries so unless you have a big inch motor... I hear that headman elite's fit pretty goos if you get 1 3/4"
