bbc 4x4 guys

I am wanting to see what headers all the bbc 4x4 owners are using. I am ready to get some but I want to see what is working for you all. I don't really want the collectors to hang below the frame. Do I have to go shortie to not have that happen? Thanks for the help.

Here is a link to info on the headers I am using on my 69 K20 with a bbc. The headers do sit partially below the frame.

Why do you not want the collectors hanging below the frame? I highly doubt they would ever contact any type of terrain.

I don't want them to hang below the frame because I have 11 inches of lift and it would be too easy to see them. I don't want to see them.

I was told yesterday that I should use car headers. For a camaro or something. He said they won't hang as low and the collectors won't be right beside the t-case. Any thoughts on that?
