Cut out clearance question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Screaminz2002 · 01-31-2010, 06:36 PM

I am really tight on clearance getting into my driveway and I would like to do QTP or DMH cutouts. Can anyone chime in on how tight they are up next to the body and how much they hang down below the stock line?Noweeds might be better on clearance but I have my reasons for not wanting to use them. Really don't want to have that debate as there is plenty of threads on it already. Just nothing really saying what these two do for clearance..

I could get you measurements from mine, any variations depend on the welder. I won't have time to measure until at least tomorrow.

That would be awsome. Although just a yes it's lower then anything else on the car or no it's not would work too!

It is lower than the baseline of the car's underside.

Clearance all depends on how good the install is?
Here is a PDF file of our cutout measurements. You can see for yourself how much room the take up.

i dont know an exact measurement but the qtp's that we have installed we have had no issues with them dragging
we try to get them as close to the floor pan as possible so that it will not rub and make all kinds of racket the qtp low pro files work great on these cars
any questions or anything just give me a call or pm me

I think I have a welder who will spend some time and really get it right. I just need to get under the car and do some measurements from that PDF. I really do appreciate you posting that. Probably made the difference on which cut out I purchase. You guys seem to have great support in place. I guess if anything a hammer fixes a lot of issues.

I know the exhaust is 2.5 so is that the also the actuator sizing?

The only issue we had with my install was one of the posts that hold the head shielding in place hung down a bit low and was touching the cut out. We filed that down and it's all good now! No bottom outs either. I love these things!!
