Do a search on ceramic coated pacesetter longtube headers. They are what most go with. And for good reason..

There are guys parting out LT1's all the time on here, make sure to check out the 'parts for sale' in the classifieds section and look for LT1 part outs. Any 93-97 front end will do. You can even find the same color sometimes.
Save that SS!

I dont think they make them for the LT1 anymore, or if ever for that matter

Hookers have thin flanges, might be a problem keeping them tight, get some good ones, I have heard a few complaints about the cheaper ones coating, i.e. pacesetters. but they are cheap and almost everybody has them on here
