I've said it before, the biggest restriction in the exhaust is the cats, period. If you eliminate the cats, you'll free up some power. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if someone were to fabricate an off-road pipe for the factory manifolds, and compare them to a set of dedicated longtubes, that the factory pipe/no cat setup would be within 3-4hp of the $1700 set of aftermarket headers. The biggest restriction in the intake tract is the intake manifold itself. Not the TB, not the factory CAI system. Nobody ditches the factory Z/28 CAI setup because it moves enough air to feed 700hp. You're putting a lot of work into your car for minimal to zero gain.

The stock Z/28 exhaust is actually very good. Add a mild or aggressive HCI package and the car will sound like no other car you've ever heard before

How is the ground clearance with the ARH and Kook's long tube headers?

I have no issues, but I DEFINITELY lost about an inch-1.5" at the collection spot.
You'd have to hit a weird break-over type bump to hit it (and you would have probably scraped going over regardless) but it IS there. When I get home tonight I'll take a side profile of the underside where the headers are, you can SEE them hang down, like I said that inch-ish. |

I might have missed it but what headers are you using?
The picture helps a lot, thanks. Craig

I hope that's not one of those defective Chinese Harbor Freight jack stands assisting you in the infamous Z/28 3-point hover. Kinda scary.
