Longtubes and sidepipes???

I want to put longtube headers on my 86 Iroc-Z LG4 5speed and have it exit right before the back wheel, kinda like the IROC race cars. Are Dynomax Longtubes good for my setup, and will i be able to fit sidepipes under there? Not the kind like where you can see the whole pipe, just the tips.

Maybe these materials would help with the clearance.

o yeah that could help. Theres enough room under there but that edge that runs along the frame on like the sides of the underside are in the way. Do you know if you can cut that a little???

Give him a call.

I like the round to oval tubing and the frame clearance tubes. Should tuck up nicely (or better than any conventional round exhaust pipe.
