Headers question

I am looking for a set of headers that will not hang too low on my 79 Chevy Blazer 2WD. I am running a 402 BB. The truck sits low in the front with Air ride. I think a truck header will hang too low any suggestions.

Re: Headers question

I have long tube Headers on my blazer, With the air all the way down I have about 2" I would say I would have about 4"-5" when I am driving it. I drove the blazer for about 3 years with the long tube headers and only hit them two time, but it was at 3" from the ground at all the time.. I hope with the air ride this will not be a problem. So it's up to you.

Re: Headers question

I think the long tube headers would be the way to go also. I have nothing thats low enough to worry about but I think those would do the trick. I know a kid that had a lowered blazer up here and he was running them with no major issues.
