Default Vette Manifolds for thirdgen?

I have a 1986 camaro with a gen 3 motor, looking for a better exhaust setup for my budget build. Will these fit? They are LS2 GTO/Corvette manifolds.

If those won't fit, I wonder if these would. I don't know, but maybe someone on here does? They are for sale. If you find out they might work, you can PM me. Ron

what do you think about these, Ive researched that 2000+manifolds for Fbodies fit. These are made for 00-02 fbody, and state that they bolt right up with existing ypipe ... which i know im just gonna custom make one anyway. But just wondering about clearance, these are also ceramic..and only $70.
