long tube headers 
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/PSM-70-2237/
do these headers have the o2 sensor hookups?
they dont appear to from the pic, but from i understand the o2 sensors are important.
also, if i got those, y-pipe and flowmaster cat back, would that replace my ENTIRE exhaust system?

I do not see any sign of O2 bungs....they would be at the collector on each header. It ain't nothing really to just drill them out and get some O2 bungs from Summit and weld them on.I see the air injection hook ups in the pix. Do you know what brand of header they are? It look strange that they have the air injection but not O2 bungs. As for your question about your system....yes if you got those and a y-pipe and the catback system it would replace your whole system.

The passanger side wire is long enough but it stretches the wire a little. I suggest the harness or extending the wires and wrapping them in heat tubing.

70-2237 LT's have the O2 ports (I have the same painted headers on my 96). Pacesetter includes an O2 extension kit and crappy gaskets with each pair of headers. Trash everything but the wire included and solder them yourself if you want to save $40 (the pre-cat O2's have rectangular 4-wire pigtails assuming this is for an OBD2 car). Make sure you mark them and don't let the wires touch. I used a ton of electrical tape and wire wrap on my extensions... I pulled the wrap from factory plug wires when I replaced them during my header install.
Also, the paint on the headers will burn off in a few weeks so pick up some paint stripper and a high temp coating. Word of advice: avoid VHT Flameproof paint, it's anything but. I followed all baking instructions and the paint still flaked off. My headers after a week:
From what I've heard Eastwood makes a black high temp paint that isn't the prettiest but actually lasts.

Fel pro 1406 gaskets. I just did the summit pace setter knock offs and they went pretty smoothly. They came with wire to extend the o2 connections as needed. I had the SE extensions though. 95 should use the flat connections. I used ARP 12 point stainless fasteners also.
