Default Help finding headers

This is my first time posting up anything. This site has given me a lot of good ideas. I have a 1995 corvette convertable. I have the stock motor. Does anyone know where I can get a set of long tube Headers.

You should know that the L98 and the LTx engines will accept the same headers. Hooker Super Competitions and also certain Hedmans will fit, and are super cheap (I got my Super Comps for 300 bucks) but the quality could be better, specifically my flanges are very thin and will probably give me gasket trouble later on when they try to warp.

Alot of guys on here run Hooker headers or Tpis headers. If you search you will find tons of threads regarding this topic.

EMs and TPIS are both nice products. Other top line headers for our cars are made by Stainless Works (which I have) and Melrose. The Hookers and Hedmans are not LT1 specific, which means if you need the smog (AIR) hook-ups, they're out. If you get Hedmans, make sure and get the Elites. Not only are they made much better than the standard Hedmans, but the cheap Hedman's ports don't match up correctly to the LT1's D-port heads.
