full length headers

What are good full-length headers that fit on our cars? i'm installing a dual exhaust system so id like full-length headers. i know hedman has some but they "won't clear stock floorpans," is there any way to fix this? could i still install dual exhaust easily with shorty headers?
How hard are full length headers to install?
thanks
raleigh

i had aset of the full length ones on my car.i don't know what they are talking about the floor pan thing- no problems there. i had to install a mini starter with them though. that might be just unique to the 400 tho.

You will only have problems with the hedmans if you have a 5 or 6 speed. If you have a auto you will be fine.

Hooker pn: 2210's (I think that's the pn) I don't think there are any clearance problems with them unless you have a 5 speed.

Okay, what about cars with a 5-spd? Does anyone know of a set that fit. Would a set for an LT-1 with a T-56 fit?

On those 2210's you have to grind some metal off the slave cylinder mount, but other than that they fit.
