what headers for lowered truck?
I've done some searching, but I can't find anything definitive for a 4/6" drop and headers. My truck isn't lowered yet, but I need to order headers for my 406sb and I want long tubes. If the collectors will be too low then I'll just go with a mid-length set from Early Classics. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

The headers from Early Classic are very nice, made by Sanderson.

Re: what headers for lowered truck?
You can run any header with a 4 6 drop and be fine with clearance.
Take a look at my build if you want some photos, but it's a non-issue unless you are going to be driving over curbs a lot.

Re: what headers for lowered truck?
Anthony 67, how do you like those sanderson headers? Are you pleased with the performance compared to longtubes? I know you probably lose some torque...
