    My wife thinks I turning the garage into one. 2-1/2 cars, extra deep and too small! LOL

    And two salvage yards within 15 minutes with a 95 3.4 Bird, and Camaros - 93 V8, 96 V6, 00 V6, & 02 V6. I spend about 1-2 hours each Sat morning stripping parts. :rock:

    Any 95-99 headers will fit a 00-02. Only the CIA are 00-02 specific due to the interference with the AC on the 95-99 cars. But they too will work if the AC line is moved.

      Lucky you... None of the salvage yards near me have a Camaro/Firebird at all. But back on topic, what're the advantages of LT's over shorties?

        It appears that they are no longer on the OBX site - just eBay - probably discontinued.

        Those look great. Please let us know how they fit. Can't beat the price.

            what springs?
            Wait, Is that a V6 or V8?

                I didnt think those would give you the almost 2'' drop

                      They advertise a 1.8" drop for the Eibachs and 1.6" for the B&G's. I guess its not exactly a 2" drop, but close enough for me. I wanted the SLP springs, but they're only good for an inch .

                        To the op... correct me if I read you wrong... but if you have turbo you cannot use headers unless they are turbo headers. Especially longtubes because they'll look like spaghetti noodles. Im no expert on boosted cars though.

                          You can use whatever kind of manifold/header you want. It's just the fitment issue that has everyone going with turbo headers or manifolds.

                          Though I could be incorrect also :)

                              I'm modifying an M90 blower, so header design is not an issue.

                                Might look at Strano springs as well. They have a good spring rate and are a great handling spring FWIW.

                                I run the FFF LT's and love them. I dented mine once because I wasn't paying attention to where I was while leaving a parking lot in low light (now fixed).

                                I never scrape my longtubes and I'm a little lower than stock but that's because I'll bottom out if I lower my car much more as our streets are terrible.
