Default C4 Headers

What are some good C4 LT1 long tube headers? And what cats/pipes would they go good with?

Thanks,
Ray

The TPIS 1 3/4" longtubes that I had fit amazing. They were a great design that allowed exceptional accesibility (waaay better than stock) to spark plugs, header bolts, etc.

However, I bought these in 2002, paid top dollar for which they commanded back then (i wanna say about $700, coated)

Any of the cheaper headers dont fit as well, from what Ive read.

You will be pounding, grinding, etc. having more issues changing out spark plugs

this was on my 93 lt1

American Racing headers. Quality stainless steel and fit great. Not cheap.
