Mac Headers underneath pictures Anyone have?????

I was wondering if anyone has any pics of there Mac header from underneath the car. I am putting a LT1 in an 86 RX7 and clearness is a problem, so I was wanting to see if anyone had photos of how they sit under the car. If you don't have any pics could you at least give me an idea how much lower than the oil pan the headers run.
Thanks alot for any help

If I were to put the motor on the ground resting on the oil pan, the headers would not touch the ground, but about 2 inches. I am recalling from memory.

The Y-pipe on mine comes about 1/2" down from the oil pan.

Its not the headers that hang low but the y-pipe. I believe the y pipe sits close to level with the oil pan, however I'm going off of memory. My car is up on stands, I'll take a look tonight and let you know for sure.

How close is the y pipe that goes in front of the oil pan? I that is another problem that I could encounter. The sub frame of the RX7 is closer to the oil pan than on a f body.
Thanks for all the info
