Another Hedman LT/T-5 Question

I am in the process of installing the new T-5 into my 85 Trans am. Is it possible to install the headers first and THEN the slave cylinder bracket that people are apparently having problems with? I am really indecisive right now between the Hooker LT's and the Hedmans. I want longtubes but I'd rather get the cheaper if I could. Thanks

The collector and slave are in the same space, it just doesnt work.

Go T56 and you'll be fine.

I'm guessing the The driver side flange on the Hooker Super Comps is at somewhat a different location or are those still touching?

The hookers hang about 2 inches lower so they clear.
