shorty or long tube headers?

[KingSize]

Will be purchasing some headers very soon for my 90 Chevy with the 350. For those with headers feel free to chime in. I'll be taking them to a local performance shop so difficulty of install is not something "I" have to worry about...lol. I'm not even sure I can run the long tubes because my truck is bagged and sits so low it almost looks body dropped. It's my understanding that there might be underbody clearance issues with the long tubes as they hang kinda low.

I had hooker long tubes on the 89. They tucked up nicely. I don't recall them below the frame at all and the truck was dropped 4/6. The shift linkage had to be modified slightly but the exhaust shop shouldn't have a problem there. Just so you know, long tubes make more torque. I personally has done both and I wouldn't waste my time or money on short tubes again.

The driver said might hang down a little but not much

I'm gonna go with these long tubes http://www.summitracing.com/parts/pte-h8059-1. Heard from too many different people that the shortys are mainly for looks and don't do much of anything for performance.

Did you go with those headers? I'm considering the same but not ceramic coated. Too expensive for me.
