Get MAC LTs. no interference with a tranny drop.
Do you personally know that for a fact? I'm not saying you're lieing, I just dont see how they could make LT's on our car without craddling the transmission. There literally is no room for it unless they take it under the flat unibody; which I know they dont do because the exhaust would be 2 inches off the ground.

My bbk headers are within an inch on both sides of the 'well' if you wanna call it for the transmission, I dont think they have anywhere else to put them.
i just installed some mac's on a 04 GT acouple weeks back. there is no way in hell that you can get the tranny out.. they are acutally closer than the BBK's are.. i have BBK's on my 02 and you have to pull one header off to get the tranny out. the GT i put the MAC's on look like it may need both headers taken off, they go almost directly under the tranny.

Glad you cleared that up... cause just from looking at my BBK's and putting that tranny i dont think there is even a design that they could make work. Theres just not enough room.
Well to clear it up I took my tranny off with the headers still on. Just pull it back and wiggle it back and forth while you lower it till it all clears the headers. It takes some time but you can do it. Don't try it with an auto.
