Thanks man I’ll have to look into this bc if I could save on running my current long tubes that would be great. Also on the flip side what would be the down side of that 1.5in drop if any on a street car?

No down side....You're also lowering the center of gravity on your car. Better handling.

Your long tube header collectors and oil pan should be 1.5” closer to the pavement. Check for clearance first.
