Default Headers...70 Chevelle BBC

Looking for a direction in headers for a BBC in a 70' Chevelle, need ground clearance. Is there a off the shelf set or do I need to have a set custom made? All the ones I commonly see are long tube and hang down to far.

Idea's?

Hedman 68198 fit well and hang much tighter to the floor that Hookers do. Also about 1/3 the price of Lemons

Awesome, I will check them out...that is what I am mainly after....would like to run long headers and not shorty's but my car is going to be pretty hammered to the ground so looking for as much as I can make up for as possible.

Hedman or Sanderson make a decent affordable header. I had Hookers and they hung entirely too low.

Lemons probably will be the best bet. But, they will cost you and arm and a leg.
