Default Which header for EF?

Which aftermarket header should I use for an LSVtec in a 91 CRX? I understand that the GSR and Si headers bolt up, but does one hang lower than the other?

Thanks
Ben

JDM ctr/96 spec itr header with sponn/vision top half
that would be coo for a street header but the top half is too expensive for just what it is

common headers, I meant. DC, Comptech, etc. 4-2-1 or 4-1 for less chance of scraping?


Thanks
Ben

Well my stock b16a header touched my oil pan when I built my lsvtec. I don't know if the aftermarket si header will touch but it is something to consider.

Thanks everyone, from what I found the GSR size headers are the best because they are built for the taller block/head combo that the LSVtec has.
