I ended up going with Hooker Super comp LS swap headers. I had to unfort dimple them around the PWR steering box. The engine just was not far enough back, but any farther there would have been issues with trans dip stick and wiring fitment. The engine mounts were Trans-Dapt. Kind of cheap.

The ground clearance is awesome though, they really tuck up high!!!! which is a plus.. The coating has not dis colored at all either.
