Re: Headers

If your truck is not lowered a whole lot most any brand header made for the the truck will work.I have had Hooker, Hedman, and Flowtech and none of them hang low.

Re: Headers

Re: Headers

I used ones from a third gen Camaro. Or at least that is what the guy I got them from said they were for. They are level with the frame. No issues with a 3/4 drop

Re: Headers

I had second gen Camaro Headman headers on mine and they didn't hang below the frame.
