Plug access and lt headers?

Is there a lt header that has good plug access? I have seen people have problems with getting plugs in/out with hookers, headman, etc. Is this bcuz of straight plus or do these also have angled plus?

Thanks
Jeremy

Anyone have any comment? Is there a lt header that doesnt require short plugs at all?

I have Hedman LT's and plug acces is not bad at all, most of them I can put a ratchet on without even an extention. There are a couple of plugs that I have to use an open end wrench on but it is a hell of a lot easier than it was with the stock manifolds! I used to have to jack the car up and crawl under it to get to some of them.

I could use regular plugs with the hooker shorties i had. I just use a socket and a wrench on the end. With my hedman LTs #5 ankd #6 are a PITA. I cant get a socket on the delcos at all. Thats why i usually run accel header plugs. They seem to work good but the tips come off easy. I found a place selling them for 15$ a set so that isnt bad. Advance sells them for 30$
