Any clearance issues with headers?

Just wondering if anyone has had any issues with headers when going over, say, a speed bump or something. I used to have an LS1 TA and my headers scraped over every speed bump I encountered. Do these cars have any problems like that?

I have not scraped anything yet. I am at stock height with no suspension changes. My headers and cats hang a little lower than the stock cats did, not that much lower. I'd say an inch or less. Here's a couple pics I found. Stock and headers.

You shouldn't have much of an issue. They sit slightly lower than stock, but not bad.

Best regards,

My C5 Corvette with kooks has no issues with speed bumps and my Gen5 Camaro with the d-funk Phadt headers and cats have been great.
