1982z28 exhaust help plz!

Having true duals would be nice and the sound would be nice with the 350 motor thats in it but good mufflers and pipes won't do me any good if they are dragging on the ground. Clearance has to be the most important to me. If it takes away some of the rumble thats fine. I would like to keep headers on it, but I want to know what everyone else thinks. What kind of exhaust system would be best to have the most clearance?

A 3in single system with a free flowing muffler.

As has been said so many times before, get all of the stuff for the '86-'90 TPI single cat application. That would be stuff like Hooker 2055HKR (which includes a very nice 3" mandrel bent Y-pipe), Catco 9118, and whatever catback you like that is made for that application.
