Which headers to go with

[mybckup]

I have a lowered '00 GT and wondering which is the best clearance set of long tubed header? Or has anyone input on JBA mids? Or are the tuned shortys just as good to go with? This is a summer daily ride.
This is for future purchasing. Presently have a BBK 2.5" X mid with Flowmaster 40's and 3" tails, 70mm cold air and a Typhoon intake, and 3.73 gears.
Plan is to upgrade to Trick Flow 38cc heads and headers and no boost add ons.

Running stainless steel MAC LT headers with ceramic coating https://www.americanmuscle.com/mac-15-8-ceramic-long-tube-headers-9604-gt.html , new ford gaskets, and stage 8 locking fasteners. Good bang for buck and offers good clearance.

LTs in my opinion give the best sound and best numbers. Don’t cheap out on your headers - recipe for greatness:
1) stainless steel headers with ceramic or other quality coating
2) known good clearance
3) locking fasteners (keeps the headers on tight, no exhaust leaks!)
