Buy some knock off LTs, those are even more expensive (I know their SWs...) than hooker's.

Hookers and Hawks 3rd gen fit more or less the same? I thoughts Hawks give you better ground clearance? The car has eibach sports line springs so it sits pretty low.

They hang that low? From there pictures it looks like the lowest point is near the tranny cross member.

Does anyone have any pictures from there own car with Hawk's LT's?

Re: Hawk's 3rd Gen Long tube Headers for L98

I have the Stainless Works (Hawks) headers on my IROC. I have Eibach 1" drop springs and the clearance is good (I went from Hooker shorties to SW long tubes) A lot better than the other long tubes out there. I don't have a pic that I can post at the moment.

Thanks for the photo. Is this what you installed? http://www.hawksthirdgenparts.com/ha...f-road-y-pipe/

or this?
http://stainlessworks.net/products/p...l_=323&year=55

Are the headers making it hard to get to anything? starter, change oil, etc issues like that?
