I have Hooker comps on the longhorn....they do hang about 2" below the frame,but no trouble on a 3/5 drop,& should be room to lower the front a little more. They are a good set,16guage tubing,& nice level exit on the collectors........69

I have the super comps, they also hang just a little, but with my crappy front springs, it is not uncomon for the rubber bumpers to smack the A arm on speed bumps. The collectors have yet to smack the pavement.
Also noteworthy, the collectors exit paralel with, and not a downward angle to the frome, nice when setting up pipes yourself, and the plugs are easy to get to. Only one plug requires a wrench, unlike my old headers. On the old ones, only one was able to be reached with a socket! ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350.

I have full length Headmans. Collectors do hang below the frame, but I haven't had the fenders on for a while, so I don't know if you can see them or not.
