Long tubes for lowered Vettes?
I've heard that some headers don't tuck up nicely and may actually take a hit on a lowered C5. If there are long tubes that ride low, which brands tuck up nice and tight?

I think Dynatechs took up pretty nicely. That's what EnglandGreen has and his car is as low a Vette as you'll find.
Other than that, I can tell you from past experience that the Kooks hang fairly low. I never had any problems but I was only lowered on stock bolts.

im on no front bolts and longer rears and can tell you that my dynatechs drag on big dips in the road and especialy on speed bumps. I will be raising the car back up this summer because it is too low
