Headers side pipe VS undercar Headers?

Any power loss R/R Headers from under car to Hooker side pipe headers?
Need info on if rocker pnls have to be trim to install Hooker side pipe headers.
Anyone have fitment issue with the Hooker side mount headers 1 7/8. not being level with car/one side being away from car more than it should be?

Multiple multiple threads on both questions already. You can read for hours.

I installed the stainless pipes several years ago. I did not have to trim rockers. No fitment issues.

SB's don't seem to have any fitment issues

BB's do more often than not

Installed a new set of ceramic coated Hooker super comp headers and side pipes in my small block Vette this summer - replaced a set that was the car for many, many years. I have a very minor fitment issue on the drivers side with the collector slightly farther out than the passenger side. I am probably the only one that can see it. No rocker panel trimming. Awesome for performance with STS baffles!
