Hello, The following are what you can use and prices are for coated hdrs as that is all we sell:
Hooker Super Comp #2210 LT's $569
Hedman Shorty #68470 $239 +85 for they-pipe (additional $50 to coat the y-pipe)
Hooker # 2460 Shorty(no Y-pipe Avail) $249
The Hedmans should work you are the first person we have seen with a problem. Maybe a clearance dent will help??Not the LT just the shorty's
The Hooker Super Comp #2055 will also work $509 and an additional $30 to remove the AIR and weld the holes up. This kit comes complete with y-pipe, Again the y-pipe is an additional $50 to coat.
Thanx hope this helpzzzzz

so your sayin that the headman long tubes should still work on the manual tranny?? cuz we were looking at it and the slave cylinder fills the gap between the frame and bellhousing where the header would run. now if someone has installed the headman long tubes on there car tell me how, to me it looks like it wont work, i havent tried it yet to find otu for sure, but i dont wanna take all teh stock exhaust off to just hve to put it back on again. if ya know what i mean..
