A different header question

Can someone please list ALL of the headers that are known not to lose ANY ground clearance at all. My favorites are AS&M, Pacesetter and MAC, but I am open for any opinions. Ever since I lowered my car, I am very cautious about which header system I decide to go with.

SLP, Dynatech, and Kooks all do not hurt ground clearance.

really any header that is not a shorty will hurt some (you did say any) to not hurt clearance they need to be about the same length as the manifolds (not too great for power)

So how much clearance will I lose with each of these:
1) Pacesetter Long tubes
2) SLP Long tubes
3) Dynatech Long tubes
4) Mac Mid lengths

1) Stay away from the Pacesetters, their just as bad as Hookers.
2) I did not know SLP made LT's for the 93-97 cars, link please cause I'm interested in these.
3) You will lose very little ground clearance with the Dyantech LT's but I have heard horror stories about install and also plug access may get rather difficult.
4) Macs will not really hurt ground clearance at all if the Y-Pipe is installed right and I have heard they make plug/wire changes a snap with the MT's.

SLP claims very little ground clearance lose and they also claim that they install from the top as well...also claimin a 20 hp gain over their mid length headers.

Your talking about the LT's right? If so could someone link me to a site that sells them?

Sorry Chris- I was a little too tired last nite and misread the post- I was thinking of TPiS long tube headers- which are claimed to one of the best-
