Hey man!
You saw my car last weekend. I have H&R Race springs with 3/4 turn cut off the fronts and the rear lowered wit hthe adjustable perches to match. I don't have any dragging of the collectors, but my cats and/or o/r mid-pipe drag when going over the speed bumps behind the student center on campus. I haven't had any other dragging around town.

If you want me to measure any specific clearances, I can.

Oh word, I didnt think you had LTs on.

Well this is all good news, maybe LTs will be next after the work I'm doing now, then.

I have H&R Sport Springs and ARH Longtubes and I have yet to scrape. Just make sure you buy a well made headers and you shouldn't have a problem.

Im lowered not with h&rs but still lowered pretty low and i have lts and i dont hit them on anything and the speed bumps are huge at my college. The location of them is right by the tires so as the tires go on the speed bump the headers clear easy a least in my experience.
